Among the hordes of ducks seen at Utah Lake in November, the pres- 

 ence of this species was recognized, and several were shot. Though not so 

 numerous as certain other species, they were still quite common. They fre- 

 quented to some extent the waters of the lake, but, when this became par- 

 tially frozen over, followed the Provo River, and I saw many far up among 

 the rapids and shallows of this stream as it pursued its swift course through 

 the deep and narrow canons. I did not secure any evidence of the presence 

 at this time of the closely allied species Fulix affinis, though if not there 

 then it had been a little earlier, as the gunners distinguish between them, 

 and assured me of its abundance.
