236 Birds of San Pedro Martir. [zoe 



Dryobatesvillosus hyloscopus. Cab anis's Woodpecker. Not 

 uncommon in the pines on San Pedro. Given as liarrisii in my 

 notes in Mr. Bryant's list. 



Dryobates scalaris lucasaniis. St. Lucas Woodpecker. A 

 specimen taken April 30 at San Telmo and others seen. I 

 have frequently seen Dryobates in the cacti along the coast hills 

 from San Fernando north, but owing to their extreme shyness 

 have usually failed to take specimens. It is quite probable that 

 the notes furnished Mr. Bryant regarding the finding of D. rmt- 

 iallii among the cacti of the coast belong to the present species, 

 as I do not think I have ever seen nuttallii away from deciduous 

 trees. 



Dryobates 7mttallii. NuTTAix's Woodpecker. Common 

 along all the timbered streams as high as 4000 feet, or the limit 

 of the live oaks and sycamores. 



Melaiierpes formicivorus bairdi. California Woodpecker. 

 Well distributed through the pines on San Pedro, and probably 

 resident; nowhere very plenty, but more common in the oak 

 growth from Ensenada north. 



Colaptes cafer. Red-shafted Flicker. Rather common on 

 San Pedro, descending to the lower valleys in winter. 



Phakcnoptihis ludtallii calif ornicus. California Poor-will. 

 Poor-wills were very abundant in the lower valleys in late April 

 of the past year, but none were heard above 4500 feet until May 

 8, when one was heard at our camp at 7000 feet. They were 

 heard at 8500 feet May 25, and one taken at the western edge 

 of the mountain on May 28 was evidently nesting. They were 

 much oftener heard than seen, as they are not much on the wing. 



Chordeiies texensis. Texas Night-hawk. Quite common 

 in the lower valleys, especially about the water holes; one seen 

 as high as I,a Grulla — 8200 feet. 



Cypseloides niger. Black Swift. At San Telmo a pair of 

 these swifts appeared about camp several times during the fore- 

 noon of April 30th, and one was shot by a member of the party; 

 not noticed again. 



Chcstura vauxii. Vaux'.s Swift. At Tia Juana April 16,
