* Mexican and Central American records for this species are singularly few, only 

 the State of Oaxaca (Tehuantepec City) and Guatemala being represented, so far as I 

 have 1 ,een able to tliscover. Its line of migration would therefore appear to be chiefly 

 across the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea to Colombia.
