ZOOLOGICAL GEOGRAPHY. 



[PART III. 



most of the species of tragopan (Ceriornis), and some of the 

 true pheasants (Phasianus). 



The most abundant and characteristic of the smaller birds are 

 warblers, tits, and finches, of Palsearctic types ; but there are 

 also a considerable number of Oriental forms which penetrate 

 far into the country, and mingling with the northern birds 

 give a character to the Ornithology of this sub-region very 

 different from that of the Mediterranean district at the western 

 end of the region. Leaving out a large number of wide-ranging 

 groups, this mixture of types may be best exhibited by giving 

 lists of the more striking Palsearctic and Oriental genera which 

 are here found intermingled.
