88 The Birds of Cambridgeshire 



Reguht* crintatus, K. L. Koch. Golden-Crested Wren. Not 

 very common. 



[R, ignicapiUus (C. L. Brehm). Fire-Crested Wren. The 

 original record for Britain, founded on a bird taken 

 near Cambridge in 1832, is considered more than doubt- 

 ful. A fresh record is needed. (Proc. Zool. Soc., 1832, 

 p. 139; Zoologist, 1889, p. 172.)] 



Phylloscopus rufiis (Bechstein). Chiffchaff. A widely dis- 

 tributed summer migrant, nowhere very abundant. 



P. trochilns (Linn.). Willow- Wren. A moderately common 

 summer migrant. 



P. sibilatrix (Bechstein). Wood-Wren. Has been reported 

 from Cambridge and Bottisham, a specimen from the latter 

 place being in the University Museum of Zoology. 



Acrocephalus streperus (Vieillot). Reed- Warbler. A local 

 summer migrant, plentiful where it occurs. 



A. palustris (Bechstein). Marsh- Warbler. The nest is stated

 the county. 



A. phragmitis (Bechstein). Sedge- Warbler. A very common 

 summer migrant. 



Locustella naema (Boddaert). Grasshopper- Warbler. Plenti-

L. luscinwides (Savi). Savi's Warbler. See above. 



Accentor modularis (Linn.). Hedge-Sparrow. Common. 



A. collaris (Scopoli). Alpine Accentor. The first record for 

 Britain was that of two specimens at King's College, 

 Cambridge, in 1822. None have been observed in the 

 county since that year. (Zool. Journ. I. (1824), p. 134; 

 Yarrell, ed. iv. I. p. 291.) 



Pamirti* l><rmicm (Linn.). Bearded Titmouse. See above. 



Acredula caudata (Linn.). Long-tailed Titmouse. The form
