Mr. Hume has shown (I. c.) that there can be no doubt about 

 the authenticity joi the eggs of Severtzoff's Rose-Finch found by 

 Dr. Stoliczka in Western Tibet. 



These eggs are of a broad pointed oval form and possess a small 

 amount ot gloss. They are blue, sparingly spotted and speckled, 

 almost entirely at the broad end, with deep black. They measure 

 respectively : -95 by '69 ; 1 by -68 ; 1 by -69 ; -98 by '7.
