Distribution of Birds in North Russia. 21 



(18) Emheriza melanocephalaj Scop. No. 69 in Table. 

 Same category as No. 19. 



(19) Anthus Gustavi (Swinhoe), P. Z. S. 1863. 

 No. 83 in Table. 



Vide Appendix to "Notes on Birds of the Lower Petchora" 

 (issued with separate copies, 1877), where it is shown that 

 our supposed new Pipit [Anthus Seebohmi^ Dresser) has since 

 been identified with Corydalla Gustavi of Swinhoe, we having 

 examined specimens of Swinhoe's types from Northern China. 

 {Vide also 'Ibis,' 1877, p. 128.) 



(20) Oriolus galbala^ L. No. 88 in Table. 

 Same category as No. 19. 



(21) Turdusfuscatus, Pall. No. 92 in Table. 



Concerning the occurrence of this species in Europe and 

 within our limits I cannot do better than quote from Brandt's 

 paper before mentioned. " Two specimens of this species so 

 much sought after by collectors of European birds and whose 

 summer residence may be considered to be Northern Asia (not 

 exactly Arctic Asia) and Central Asia, but not, as Pallas says, 

 Dauria, the Selenga, the Tunguska, and Upper Jenesei only, 

 were shot on the 6th July near the sources of the Petchora 

 under the 62° of N. latitude; a third was shot near Man- 

 santansse-tump, between 64° and 65° N. lat." 



I cannot discover this latter locality upon Stieler's Atlas ; but 

 as the Ural Expedition for the most part followed the western * 

 slope of the Ural, it is reasonable to suppose that it occurred 

 within our limits. In any case those obtained near the sources 

 of the Petchora will admit the species to the fauna of the 

 SouTHEKN Division. 



(22) Turdus viscivorus^ L. No. 93 in Table. 



We have no direct evidence of its occurrence north of 64° 

 30' N. lat., Meves merely saying that it was found by him 

 " in many large flocks in the department of Archangel." 

 (The italics are mine.) 



(23) Tardus musicus^ L. No. 95 in Table. 



I enter this on the authority of Lilljeborg first, and then on 

 Goebel's (1873). The latter author records finding a nest of 

 this species containing four eggs, at Archangel, in June 1864. 

 In 'Jouraal fur Orn.' 1869, p. 318, Herr Goebel makes
