Notes
[Specimen?] labels of Joseph Rock for birds collected in Likiang [current: Lijiang?] Snow Range (in Yunnan), Tseh Chung (Mekong Valley), and possibly other Chinese localities.

Information on each label may include collector number (two numbers: one possibly collector number, the other, possibly catalog number), sex, date, locality, elevation, physical description (including colors), and additional notes. Some labels are written in Chinese. Envelopes include 296800-296899; 296900-296999; 297000-297099; 297100-297199; 297200-297299; 297300-297399; 297400-297499; 297500-297599; 297600-297634.
