Mr. J. A. Bucknill on the 
Lord Lilford found it exceedingly common in April 1875, 
especially near the Larnaca saltHakes. Schrader writes of 
it as a winter visitor. Guillemard only mentions it once, 
when he met with a stray specimen near Limassol in early 
March, 1887. Glaszner sent Madarasz a female taken on 
November the 5th, 1903, near Larnaca. The Redshank is, I 
believe, not at all uncommon in winter and at the seasons 
of migration, and I think forms no small proportion of the 
flocks of Waders sometimes observed near the reservoirs. 
Mr. Nicolls informs me that he has shot the bird more than 
once in the island. Mr. Baxendale obtained a female from 
Acheritou on January the 12th, 1910, and a few days later 
Horsbrugh met with several individuals at the Larnaca salt- 
lake. 
1084. Totanus fuscus (Linn.). 
A female Spotted Redshank was shot by Lord Lilford in a 
marsh near Larnaca on April the 21st, 1875. Mr. Baxendale 
shot a female near Famagusta on March the 11th, 1910. 
I know of no other local records. This is, no doubt, an 
uncommon spring and autumn migrant but it is easily 
overlooked. 
1085. Totanus guottis Naum. 
Totanus canescens , B. O. U. List, p. 177. 
Lord Lilford found the Greenshank not uncommon in 
the swampy plains westward of Salamis in April—not in 
flocks but singly or in couples—probably pairs. Apparently, 
either Pearse or Guillemard obtained specimens, but the 
latter does not mention the species in his Ibis * articles. 
Mr. G, F. Wilson shot a male at Pyroi, near Nicosia, on 
October the 3rd, 1909. No doubt it is solely a visitor in 
spring and autumn, a few, perhaps, wintering in the island. 
1087. Totanus stagnatilts Beehst. 
As “ Totanus stagnalis (!) Beehst,” the Marsh-Sandpiper 
is one of Unger and Kotschy's additions to Sibthorp's list; 
but there are, of course, no data given. However, Lord 
Lilford received, without particulars, through Guillemard, in 
January 1889, a single specimen which had been obtained 
by or through Captain (now Sir Arthur) Young, at that time
