It is to be regretted that only one specimen was taken, but the character of the bill is so constant in large series of the two other Eurasian forms of pine grosbeak and without resemblance to the shape shown in the Altai bird, that I have no hesitation in adding a third race. Emberiza hortulana Linne. One adult male Tchegan-Burgazi Pass, July 23. E. buchanani Blyth was not seen by any of the party. I suppose, like many other birds given as the breeding forms of the Altai Mountains, its range is really limited to the Mongolian slopes of the mountains. CORVIDAE. CORVUS CORAX LATJRENCEI Hume. This raven was not taken, but a skull, with most of the feathers was saved from the remains of a dead bird found at Topucha, AugustA8. So far as I can decide by the skull alone the raven of the region appears to be nearer laurencei than to any of the other Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Harvard University.
