Dragoons

In 1877 the dragoons not only fought like infantry but were dressed in very similar uniforms. They wore green tunics with the collars piped in the regimental colour, and green kepis. A green sash edged with the regimental colour was worn around the waist. Distinctions were as Table B.

Uhlans

The 14 uhlan regiments created towards the end of the Napoleonic wars were also destined to become dragoons in 1882. In 1877 the Russian uhlans wore what were essentially Napoleonic uniforms consisting of blue kurtkas with collars, lapels and cuffs in the regimental colour. Those uhlan regiments sent to the Balkans appear to have worn furashkas instead of the regulation czapskas. Distinctions were as Table C.
