146 NILS GYLDENSTOLPE, ZOOLOGICAL RESULTS OF THE SWEDISH ZOOLOGICAL EXPEDITIONS TO SIAM. 



317. Tringoides hypoleucos. Linn. — The Common Sandpiper. 



Tringoides hypoleucos: Gyldenstolpe I p. 69; Robinson III p. 725: Gyldenstolpe II; Gyldenstolpe III p. 236: 



Robinson & Kloss p. 13; Muller p. 435. 

 Tota hus hypoleucos: Williamson I p. 48. 

 Actitis hypoleuca: Gould p. 151; Schomburgk p. 261. 



Exceedingly common during the winter months and found both along the coast 

 and along the inland rivers and creeks.

318. Glottis nebularius. Gunn. — The Greenshank. 



Glottis nebularius: Gyldenstolpe I p. 70; Robinson III p. 726; Robinson & Kloss p. 13. 

 Glottis canescens: Gould p. 151. 



£ Kob Lak 13 /i 2 1914. L = 355 mm.; W = 182 mm.; T = 84 mm.; C — 5(1 mm.; Tarsus = 50 

 mm. — Irides: black. Bill: plumbeous. Legs: greyisb yellow. 



The Greenshank is only a winter visitor to Siarn and not very common. In Northern 

 Siarn it was never met with, but southwest of Bangkok, where large swamps occur, and 

 along the coast of the Gulf of Siarn it was fairly abimdant and generally seen in pairs 

 or small flocks. It is rather shy but easy to obtain when one imitates its characteristic 

 note. Then it comes at once even from a far distance. 



319. Rhyacophilus glareola. Gm. The Wood Sandpiper. 



lihyacophilus glareola: Gould p. 151; Robinson & Kloss p. 13. 



Rhyacophilus glareolus: Muller p. 435. 



Totanus glareola: Gyldenstolpe I p. 69; Gyldenstolpe III p. 236; Williamson I p. 48. 



$ Kob Lak s / 12 1914. L = 212 mm.; W = 123 mm.; T = 53 mm.; C = 32 mm. — J* Kob Lak 

 s /i2 1914. L == 198 mm.; W = 116 mm.; T = 55 mm.; C = 30 mm. — J 1 Kob Lak «/« 1914. L = 193 

 mm.; W = 120 mm.; T = 54 mm.; C = 29 mm. — <j> Kob Lak n /i« 1914. L = 203 mm.; W = 129 mm.; 

 T = 58 mm.; C = 29 mm. — Irides: brown. Bill: blackish green. Legs: greenish grey. 



Very common during the cold season on suitable localities över the whole country. 

 Unlike Totanus ochropus Linn., which I also observed in Siarn the Wood Sandpiper 

 was generally seen in flocks on the marslies or swamps, sometimes even occurring on the 

 paddy-fields. 



320. Limonites damacensis. Horsf. The Long-toed Stint. 



V Sop Tue 8S / 4 1914. L — 150 mm.; W = 102 mm.; T = 51 mm.: C — 18 mm.; Tarsus - 17,5 

 mm.: Middlc toe and claw = 20,2 mm. — Irides: brown. Bill: black. Legs: yellowish brown. 



A single female specimen of this species was shot on a sandbar in the Meh Wong 

 river near Sop Tue. 



From Bangkok it lias lately been recorded by Williamson (Journ. Nat. Hist. Soc. 

 Siarn., Vol. I, part 3, p. 199 1915) and during the cold season it is probably fairly common
