Tientsin {Fleming), Pekin (David). I saw two sizes of this 

 in the Paris Museum from Pekin, but I scarcely think they are 

 separable. There was only one specimen of each to judge from. A 

 specimen has been received from Trans-Baikal.

Amoy. Received from Trans-Baikal. Found near Calcutta in 

 winter (Blyth). Indian specimens have the throat and belly white,

 winter dress. A Baikal specimen in breeding-plumage is yellowish 

 beneath with black spots on the breast. A specimen shot in Sep- 

 tember at Amoy is intermediate.
