1) According to le Roi (Ornith. Monatsber. 1908, p, 109) two specimens 

 of Emberiza rutila Pallas have been caught in the beginning of April 1906 

 near Bocholtz, province Limburg. As in 1905 a large number of these buntings 

 has been imported, it is very likely, that they were examples escaped from 

 captivity.
