Parus sibiricus. Lath. Ind. Orn. 2. 571. 25. 



Siberian Titmouse. Lath. Gen. Syn. 4. 556. 23. A. 



CONSIDERED by Dr. Latham as a variety of P. 

 sibiricus, but it is evidently different, having a 

 much longer tail, and without any rufous tinge 

 on either the breast or the bottom of the back ; 

 neither is the black on the chin and throat so 

 broad : its beak and legs are black : the upper 

 parts of the plumage pale cinereous : quills dusky, 

 with hoary margins : forehead and under parts 

 white : throat and middle of the breast black. 

 Native place unknown.
