ity pass the winter somewhat farther south. One, taken March 3oth, 

 and another April 4th, were just completing the renewal of their 

 primary quills. All of the March specimens had the remiges partly 

 renewed. Eleven were obtained in all. Iris dark brown. 



149. Empidonax salvini Ridgway. 



A single specimen of this species was taken near Tecpam, at 

 9,500 feet. 



150. Empidonax hammondi (Xantus). 



The only individual encountered was near Tecpam, at 6,500 feet,

151. Empidonax trepidus Nelson. 



One specimen was taken in January near Tecpam, at 9,500 feet,

152. Myiochanes pertinax (Cabanis & Heine}. 



At Lake Atitlan and along the road from there to Tecpam this

 of April. No sign of moulting is visible on any of them. Iris dark 

 brown.

One specimen was taken at Lake Atitlan April 8th. No others 

 were noticed.

 flycatcher that could possibly be obtained, none of this species were 

 taken on the Atlantic slope. On the Pacific side, however, it was not 

 uncommon. Two specimens were taken at San Jose, three at Patulul, 

 and one at Mazatenango. Iris dark brown. 



155. Myiarchus crinitus (Linnaus}. 



Two were taken late in January at Los Amates and another at

 dark brown.
