157. SanicariA TAMARICETI, Severtzoff, pp. 66, 131. 
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 14!" longer than the outside ones; lst primary longer 
than the coverts, 8=4, these being the longest, 2=7, and 
sometimes =6. ‘Total length 5” 3!'—5!" 5!" extent 7-7" 3!”,

158. SaLicaRIA MODESTA, Severtzoff, pp. 66, 129. 
Range. Same as No. 154. 
At page 129 the followmg description is given :—“ Bill 
small, head large, legs long, tarsus covered with eight scu- 
tellz, lst primary rather longer than the coverts, 3=4, 2=7, 
the 4th tail-feather the longest, the central one 1” shorter.

159 SaLicaRiA CONCOLOR, Severtzoff, pp. 66, 180. 
Range. Same as No. 154. 
This bird is described (p. 180) as follows :— Bill slightly 
larger than in S. gracilis ; outer tail-feather 32” shorter than 
the central ones; Ist primary rather longer than the coverts, 
3=4,2=6.” Lighter in colour than S. gracilis. 
160. Hypotais cauicata (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. Severtzofi’s 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 4th rectrix the
