166 Lt.-Col. Sir O. B. St. John on the Birds 



109. Sylvia affinis^ Blytli. 



Dr. Duke obtained a specimen^ and I got a second^ at 

 Kandahar^ noted by Mr. Hume as belonging to this species. 



110. Sylvia minuscula, Hume. 



Col. Swinhoe obtained a single specimen in Kandahar. 



111. MOTACILLA PERSONATA^ Goukl. 



112. MOTACILLA ALBA^ LiuU. 



Both common in winter. 



113. Calobates melanope (Pall.). 

 A rare winter visitant. 



114. Budytes kayi, Bp. 



Neither Col. Swinhoe nor I obtained this Wagtail in Kan- 

 dahar^ but I shot one on the road between Pishin and the 

 city in April 1881, which I gave to Col. Swinhoe, and my 

 identification seems to have been confirmed in England (see 

 Ibis, 1888, p. 91). I have since seen what I believe to be 

 B. rayi at an elevation of 8000 feet, in September. It is 

 common in Yarkand. 



115. BUDY^TES CINEREOCAPILLA (Savi). 



Common on its way to and from its breeding-places. 



116. Budytes melanocephala (Licht.). 



Very common in spring for a short time, a few remaining 

 about Kandahar to breed. 



117. Budytes flava (Linn.). 



I obtained it only about Kandahar, but Dr. Duke shot a 

 young bird at Mastung in June. 



118. Budytes calcarata (Hodgs.). 



Not so common as the last two. A few remain at Kan- 

 dahar to breed. 



119. Budytes citreola (Pall.). 

 Common in spring. 



120. Anthus trivialis (Linn.). 



Col. Swinhoe obtained a single specimen at Kandahar, 

 where, he says, it is common in winter. I did not obtain it.
