188 Mr. H. Seebohm on the Ornithology of Siberia. 



EMBERIZA SPODOCEPHALA, Pall. 



Mr. Kibort has sent me a skin of this species from the 

 neighbourhood of Kras-no-yarsk'. Dr. Theel also obtained it 

 there and at Asinova, in lat. 61. 



EMBERIZA AUREOLA, Pall. 



Mr. Kibort has sent me the nest and eggs of this species 

 from Kras-no-yarsk f . 



EMBERIZA PUSILLA, Pall. 



Dr. Theel obtained this species in lat. 65 on the 13th of 

 July. 



EMBERIZA CIOIDES, Brandt. 



I have received seventeen skins of this handsome Bunting 

 in autumn plumage, and two skins in breeding-plumage, 

 from Kras-no-yarsk'. In both plumages the ear-coverts are 

 deep reddish brown, instead of black as in its Japanese ally, 

 E. ciopsis, Bp. All the skins of E. ciopsis, Bp., from Japan 

 which I have seen in collections in this country have black 

 ear-coverts ; but in the Leyden museum both species are 

 labelled as coming from Japan. 



ALAUDA ARVENSIS, Linn. 



Mr. Kibort has sent me several skins of the Sky-Lark 

 from the neighbourhood of Kras-no-yarsk'. They all appear 

 to be identical with our European species, and differ from 

 the Japanese form in being paler on the upper parts. 



ALAUDA PISPOLETTA, Pall. 



Mr. Kibort has sent me a skin of this species from Kras- 

 no-yarsk'. 



ANTHUS CERVINUS, Pall. 



This species was first met with by Dr. Theel on the 25th of 

 July in lat. 69, which is probably the southern limit of its 

 range in the breeding-season. 



ANTHUS TRIVIALIS (Linn.). 



Dr. Theel found this species as far north as lat. 69. 



ANTHUS GODLEWSKII (Tacz.), Bull. Soc. Zool. France 1876, 

 p. 158. 



Mr. Kibort has sent me two skins, obtained near Kras-no-
