“The species of this genus,” remarks Mr. Yarrell, in his admi- 
rable work on British Birds, “are very limited in number, only 
five, I believe, being at present known ; two are figured in this work 
as belonging to England, two others are found in the north and east 
of Europe, and a fifth has been received from the Himalaya moun- 
tains.” The discovery of six distinct species in India, which have 
mostly been collected in Nepal by B. H. Hodgson, Esq., one from 
Japan, and the two described by Dr. Brandt, making in all twelve 
species, is accordingly no small accession to the known species of 
this interesting genus. 
* Not having been so fortunate as to examine the descriptions of Dr. Brandt’s 
species, I am unable to describe them in this notice. 
+ One of which species is in all probability the so-called Accentor Calliope of 
Temm. v. Calliope Camtschatkensis, Gmel., which, certainly, has no affinity to 
Accentor.
