tanskie Jevotnie). By H. E. Dresser. 
[Continued from vol. v. p. 342.] 
Nor long after the former portion of this paper was published 
in last year’s ‘Ibis,’ I received a visit from Dr. Severtzoff 
himself, who came over here for the purpose of looking over 
my collection of Palearctic birds, and of comparing some of 
his specimens which he brought with him. During his stay 
I had an opportunity of going through his work with him ; 
and he also spent some time in adding MS. notes to my copy 
of his work, of which I make use in the following article.

districts 3 and 4, and is a summer visitant to district 5.

Horizontal range. Breeds in districts If., III., and IV. 
Vertical range. Occurs on passage in district 2, and breeds

Dr. Severtzoff informed me that he had compared his birds

tainly specifically identical.
