(iv.) with fewer, bolder, and richer spots and small blotches, more 

 or less confluent, resembling typical eggs of the Ring-Ouzel ; and 

 (v.) an extreme form, in which the markings are scanty though bold 

 and often of a bright tint, and usually more numerous at the larger 

 end, the ground-colour being of the bright clear blue already 

 alluded to. Two eggs of this last-named type in the Collection seem 

 worthy of separate notice : one, from the Sundal Valley, Norway, 

 has the spots and blotches, which are not very thickly collected at 

 the larger end, of a very pale reddish lilac without any admixture 

 of a darker colour ; while the second, from Molde, Norway, of a paler 

 blue ground-colour, in addition to a few specks of this same colour, 

 has only one other marking, a very conspicuous scrawl at the 

 larger end, of intense purplish-black ; this is more than half an inch 

 in length and exactly as if it had been traced with a broad and 

 heavy stroke of the pen. In many cases the occurrence is noticed 

 of a single egg (rarely two) of type v. in a clutch of other types. 

 Frequent instances of this are found in the Collection, and there 

 are two clutches in which aU the eggs are of that type. 



They measure from 1-03 to 1-35 in length, and from -73 to -9 in 

 breadth.
