44 General Notes. 



rence of this species in spring in our state and the third, I 

 think, for the Atlantic slope. The species is not uncommon, 

 during the spring migration in Illinois and other northern 

 states, but is extremely rare in the east; on the other hand 

 it is quite common in eastern Massachusetts in early Sep- 

 tember. The breeding grounds of this warbler are un- 

 known. — C, J. Maynard, Boston, Mass. 



Cuban Night Hawk {Chordeiles popetue minor) in 

 Florida. — I have recently received from one of my Florida 

 collectors, some six or eight specimens of a small Night 

 Hawk, taken in the vicinity of Clear Water Harbor early 

 in April. I refer these birds, which are certainly much 

 smaller than any I have hitherto seen from Florida, to 

 minor, although none of the specimens are as rufous as I 

 should expect to see. 



Mr. Green Smith obtained this sub-species at Tampa some 

 years ago, and Mr. Ridgway credits me with obtaining a 

 specimen at Miami, but I think this latter record is an 

 error. (See Descriptions of Birds New to North American 

 Fauna, by C. J. Maynard, under head of Chordeiles minor, 

 for notes on this subject.) The birds obtained were breed- 

 ino- and the e^^^ have since then been obtained. Dimen- 

 sions of specimens, wing, 7.25; tail, 3.60.— (7. J. Maynard,
