Range. Same as No. 154. 
At page 131 Dr. Severtzoff describes this bird as follows - 
“ Bill large, broad, and like that of Hypolais; middle rec- 
trices l^ ,n longer than the outside ones; 1 st primary longer 
than the coverts, 3 — 4, these being the longest, 2 = 7, and 
sometimes = 6 . Total length 6" 2> m -5 n 5 m , extent 7"-7" 3 ,w ,

158. Salicaeia modesta, Severtzoff, pp. 66 , 129. 
Range. Same as No. 154. 
At page 129 the following description is given :—“ Bill 
small, head large, legs long, tarsus covered with eight scu- 
tellee, 1st primary rather longer than the coverts, 3 = 4, 2 = 7, 
the 4th tail-feather the longest, the central one l ,n shorter. 
In coloration similar to S. obsoleta, but the light eye-streak 
passes 2"' beyond the eye.” 
159 Salicaeia concoloe, Severtzoff, pp. 66 , 130. 
Range. Same as No. 154. 
This bird is described (p. 130) as follows a Bill slightly 
larger than in S. gracilis; outer tail-feather 3 shorter than 
the central ones; 1 st primary rather longer than the coverts, 
3 = 4, 2 = 6 .” Lighter in colour than S. gracilis. 
160. Hypolais caligata (Licht.). 
Salicaria scita, Eversm.; Severtzoff, pp. 66 , 130. 
Horizontal range. Breeds rarely in districts III. and IV. 
Vertical range. Breeds in districts 2 and 3, rarely in the 
former. 
Dr. SevertzofFs specimens, labelled S. scita , are, I find, 
undoubtedly referable to H. caligata; so I do not translate 
his description; but at page 130 he describes a subspecies 
under the name of Salicaria scitopsis as follows :—“ Smaller 
than S. scita; bill thinner; tail shorter, the 4 th rectrix the
