The present paper includes brief accounts of a total of nine (9) species of shorebirds considered as rare visitors in Japan which I have collected from January 1950 to June 1954 on the Nanko mudflat along the shore of Osaka Bay. Records have been maintained on a total of 173 study trips made in this area during the above period. A more detailed, complete publication of my observations in this area is contemplated within the next few years.
The following species are here recorded:

2) Pseudototanus guttifer (see Tori, No. 65)
