One occurrence. Mr. Thomas Southwell records that
a bird of this species was sent him for determination
by Mr. Pashley, of Cley-next-the-Sea, on the coast of
Norfolk. It had been shot on 31st October, 1896,
and was in perfect condition and apparently an adult
bird.
According to Mr. Dresser, Pallas’s Willow-Warbler
appears regularly on migration within the limits of the
Western Palsearctic Region. Its range extends also
from the Ural Mountains to Eastern Siberia, where it
breeds, and probably passes the winter in Southern
China and India. It has once occurred on the island
of Heligoland. ^ [0. S.]
