Intergeneric Hybrid? 



Tringa cooperi Baird 



Rep. Expl. and Surv. R.R. Pac. 9: xlvii (in list), 716, 1858. 

 5989. Adult male. "Raynor South," Nassau County, Long Island, New 

 York. May 24, 1833. Collected by William Cooper. Received from 

 William Cooper. 

 This extraordinary bird, known from only one specimen, is doubtless a 

 hybrid, but its parentage is not at all obvious. 



The type locality, no longer in existence under the same name, seems to 

 have been in the vicinity of Raynortown, formerly a village in the township 

 of Hempstead, situated near the shore of Hempstead Bay.
