28 Mr. J. D. D. La Touche—Field-Notes on 
‘fields as late as April 24. The winter of 1901-1902 was a very 
good season at Chinkiang for wild-fowl. Much water 
remained in the fields from the previous summer’s floods, 
the cold was severe, and quantities of Ducks and Teal fre- 
quented the wet fields and inland ponds. 
217. ANAS ZONORHYNCHA Swinhoe. 
Styan, Ibis, 1891, p. 496; La Touche & Rickett, Ibis, 
1905, p. 67. 
Resident. Abundant in winter. 
218. Darita acuta (L.). 
Styan, Ibis, 1891, p. 496. 
Abundant in winter. 
219. Ax GALERIcuULATA (L.). 
Styan, Ibis, 1891, p. 496. 
Several examples were shot or netted during the winter of 
190i-1902. The collectors saw three on April 22, and a 
small party of Ducks seen by me on April 19 were, I believe, 
of this species. 
220. Nerrium rormosum (Georgi). 
Styan, Ibis, 1891, p. 497. 
This Teal was very common -during the season of 
1901-1902 on the flooded fields. I shot one as late as 
March 23. 
221. Netrium crecca (L.). 
Styan, Ibis, 1891, p. 496. 
Very abundant in winter, arriving early and remaining 
until Jate in spring. 
222. QuUERQUEDULA circrA (L.). 
Styan, Ibis, 1891, p. 496. 
The only individual of this species which I have seen at 
Chinkiang was a male resembling the semi-albino procured 
by me at Foochow (see ‘ Ibis,’ 1892; p. 492). It was shot by 
the collectors on April 24.
