In winter this Stint cannot be distinguished from the preceding by its plumage. It is, however, a larger bird, with a shorter, stouter, and blacker tarsus. The wing is generally more than 3.9 long, and the tarsus rarely exceeds .75. Some Burmese birds appear to be of intermediate size.

In summer the sides of the face, the throat, sides, and front of the neck and upper breast are rich ferruginous red, the chin alone remaining whits. The plumage elsewhere resembles that of T. minuta.

Bill, legs, and feet black ; irides dark brown (Armstrong).

Length 6.25 ; tail 1.7 ; wing 4 ; tarsus .75 ; bill from gape .8.

Distribution. Eastern Siberia in summer, Japan, China, and S. E. Asia, the Malayan Archipelago, and Australia in winter. This is the species common in suitable localities throughout Burma and in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, but only occasional specimens appear to be found in India, west of the Bay of Bengal.

Dr. Sharpe has examined the two type-specimens of Horsfield's Totanus damacensis, and finds that one belongs to the present species and one to T. subminuta; but the words in Horsfield's brief description, " rachidibus primorum albis" (shafts of the primaries white), are applicable to T. ruficollis only.





176. Tringa ruficollis.

 

The Eastern Little Stint.

Male 5 1/2" to 6 1/4". Female 5". Resembles T. minuta. Legs blackish. Bill black. Forehead white. Primary shafts white about centre, sullied near base. Breast white. From E. Siberia, China, and Japan, to Burma, Malay Archipelago, and Australia. (B. 1472.)

Shafts of first primary white, of others brown.





(2156) Erolia minuta ruficollis.

 

The Eastern Little Stint.

Tringa ruficollis Pall., Reise. Reiehs. Russ.. iii, p. 700 (1776) (Dauria); Blanf. & Oates, iv, p. 274.

Vernacular names. Chota Pau-loha (Hind.).

Description. - Breeding plumage. Differs from the preceding bird in having the sides of the head, throat and fore-neck rufous, the feathers narrowly edged with white, which soon becomes abraded, the breast and flanks are more heavily spotted with black and there are sometimes black spots on the thigh-coverts and lateral under tail-coverts.

Colours of soft parts as in the Little Stint.

Measurements. Wing 92 to 100 mm.; tail 40 to 45 mm.; tarsus 20 to 21 mm; culmen 16 to 19 mm.

In Winter this race is only to be distinguished from the preceding by its rather larger size.

Distribution. East Siberia to Japan. In Winter South to China, Australia and East to Burma, the Andamans and the Malayan Archipelago.

Nidification. Nothing recorded.

Habits. Those of the genus.
