92 A CONTRIBUTION TO THE 



942.— Inocotis papillosus, Temm. 



Common, breeding in May and again during the last three 

 months of the year. We do not think the same pairs breed 

 twice. 



943.— Falcinellus igneus, S. G. Gniel. 



Towards the end of September last D. saw a single specimen 

 at Pundharpur. 



944.— Phcenicopterus roseus, Pallas. 



Observed, but very rarely. 



950.— Sarkidiornis melanonotus, Pennant. 



Moderately common in the rains and cold weather. 



951.— Nettapus coromandelianus, Gmel. 



Moderately common during the rainy and cold seasons. 



952.— Dendrocygna javanica, Horsf. 



Somewhat rare in the more open parts of the country, but 

 very common about the wooded districts in the rains and cold 

 weather. 



953.— Dendrocygna fulva, Gm. 



W. is sure that he has observed this species at Nulwar and 

 shot several in 1873. 



954.— Casarca rutila, Pallas. 



Tolerably common on all the rivers ; staying with us until 

 nearly the end of the hot weather.* 



95^— Spatula clypeata, Linn. 



Not uncommon during winter. 



959.— Anus pcecilorhyncha, Penn. 



Common, and having been observed at several places in the 

 district during July and August, we assume that it breeds in 

 these parts. 



961.— Chaulelasmus streperus, Linn. 



A very common winter visitant. 



* This if correct is curious, as they begin to breed about the ^Tsomorari, 

 Tsokhar, the Upper Indus, &c., in May, and the young are in the water sometimes-, 

 by the middle of July.— A. 0. H.
