Accentor fulvescens, Severtzoff, pp. 66, 182. 
Horizontal range. Is found in winter in districts I., II., 
and III., and breeds in districts I. and II. 
Vertical range. Occurs in winter in districts 2 and 3—rarely, 
however, in the former; breeds in district 4, and possibly in 
district 5, as it is found there in summer. 
Dr. Severtzoff’s description of this bird suits closely my 
specimens of A. montanellus, and I should say that the 
species found by him must be this; but not having compared 
examples from Turkestan, I cannot speak with certainty, 
as there may possibly be some trifling difference in the 
Turkestan bird.

Dr. Severtzoff states that the present species somewhat 
resembles Accentor alpinus, being its representative in Central 
Asia. He describes it as follows :—‘ Crown, nape, cheeks, 
sides and back of the neck, and fore and hind parts of the 
back greyish brown with an olive tinge; centre of the back, 
scapulars, and wings blackish, with rust-coloured edges ; tail- 
feathers, except the central ones, with white ends on the inside 
of the feathers; throat white, with a narrow black stripe 
below ; the sides marked with black spots; below the black 
stripe is a brownish bar across ; rest of the underparts rust- 
coloured, with broad white edges; centre of the abdomen white; 
ist primary very short, 4>3>2>5, or2=3=4; central rec-
