EGG OF ACCENTOR MONTANELLUS. 



I HAVE mucli pleasure in giving here a figure of 

 the egg of Accentor montanellus , kindly sent me by 

 Professor Moquin-Tandon, witli the following remarks: 

 — "My two eggs of this bird are exactly alike in shape 

 and colour; they are twenty-three millimetres in long 

 diameter, and sixteen in the short. The colour pale 

 and uniform azure blue. They were taken in the south 

 of Hungary, and sent to me by my friend M. Raoul 

 de Barace D'Ano-ers."
