(666) Merula maxima. — The Central Asian Blackbird. Breeds in Kashmir 

 at high altitudes in May and June. 



(673) Merula castanea. — The Grey-headed Ouzel. I found numbers in 

 1904, at about 8,000'. This bird perches on the tops of the fir trees and is 

 hard to secure. During some seasons it is very rarely found. Breeds in May. 

 See Catalogue of Eggs, British Museum. 



(675) Merula raficoUis. — The Red-throated Ouzel is occasionally found in 

 Kashmir in winter. 



(676) Merula boulboul. — The Grey-winged Ouzel. 



(677) Merula atrigularis. — The Black-throated Ouzel is very common in 

 the lower jungles during the winter. 



(678) Merula unicolor.— Tickell's Ouzel is a very common bird. 



(686) CroclcMa citrina. — The Orange-headed Ground-Thrush. I have no 

 specimen from Kashmir, but it doubtless occurs in the lower ranges. 



(690) Petroplula erythrogastra. — The Chesnut-bellied Rock-Thrush. This 

 bird most probably is to be found in Kishtwar, &c. 



(691) Petroplula cinclorhyncha.— The Blue-headed Rock-Thrush is plentiful. 



(693) Petroplula cyanus.— The Western Blue Rock-Thrush. The specimens 

 I have are from Kasgil and Baltistan and were obtained in the summer. 



(694) Monticola saxatilis. — The Rock-Thrush has been obtained once in 

 the Leddui Valley. The specimen is in the British Museum. I have others 

 from Baltistan found in the summer. 



(695). Turdus viseivorus. — The Missel-Thrush breeds in the forests of 

 Kashmir and is plentiful during the winter in the lower valleys. 



(696) Turdus pilaris. — The Fieldfare. I am assured this bird is to be found, 

 but I have never met with it in Kashmir or Jammu Provinces. 



(698) Oreocincla damna— The Small-billed Mountain-Thrush. I think 

 this bird cannot be common ; I have rarely seen it, 



(701J Oreocincla mollissima. — The Plain-backed Mountain-Thrush. Was 

 obtained near Somajai, January 19th, 1904. 



(708) Cinclus hashmiriensis— The White-breasted Asiatic-Dipper is common 

 at various altitudes, and is found throughout the country. It often breeds near 

 glaciers. 



(709 J Cinclus asiaticus. —The Brown Dipper. A very common bird. Ap- 

 pears to breed during the whole spring and early summer. 



(711) Cinclus sordidus.— The Sombre Dipper. I have not found this species. 



(712) Accentor nepalensis.-- The Eastern Alpine Accentor. This bird is said 

 to breed in Eastern Ladak. It is found in Chin and in Baltistan and Gilgit. 

 I have not yet succeeded in tracing the line of migration and have never 

 observed it in Kashmir proper. 



(713) Accentor Mmalayensis.— The Altai Accentor. Large flocks pass 

 through Kashmir in the spring. 



(715) Tharrlialeus rubeculoidis.- -The Robin Accentor. Very common in the 

 N. E. of Ladak in summer where it breeds in May and June, building in bushes.
