Four males in summer plumage were purchased by me at Seoul. 

 I have seen this species at Riuganpo, N. Heian Distr., May 3. One 

 female specimen was presented to me by Mr. S. Wakiyama from Port 

 Arthur. This bird is probably rather common in the reed-bushes in 

 Corea. 



204 Emberiza schœniclus pyrrhulinus Sw. 



O-jurin.

Three specimens of this subspecies are preserved in the Seoul 

 Museum, One of them is a male in summer plumage, obtained at 

 Suishoku, Keiki Distr., Apr. 3, 1914. The second is a female (?) 

 obtained on the coast of Ansan, Keiki Distr., Nov. 15, 191 3. The 

 third specimen is a female (?), collected on the coast of Kakusanmcn, 

 Tsüsen, Kögen Distr., March 3, 1914. The wing is shorter (71-77 mm. 

 only) than the length given by Dr. Hartert (86 mm.). I have compared 

 the above three specimens with a series of Japanese examples, and 

 have found that there exists no difference between the two sets. That 

 is the males are somewhat larger than females, the wing of males in 

 Japanese specimens being 75-86 mm. and in the females 74-83 mm. 

 long. Dresser has stated that E. schœniclus occurs in Manchuria, and 

 I am greatly inclined to think that the distribution of the present 

 subspecies extends into Manchuria.
