33. Ri'XUKX'iKOSTKA AMERICANA Ciiii. — A\ocet. Acci- 

 dental. One specimen, in Winter plumage, taken at the Leb- 

 anon Reservoir, in the Spring of iSSo, and now in Mr. Gould's 

 collection. With the exception of Dr. Kirtland's rather indef- 

 inite note (," This ttnique bird has been killed by sportsmen 

 in the vicinity of Cincinnati"), this is, as far as I can learn, 

 the second authentic record of its occurrence in the State, Mr. 

 Dtirj' having identified it at Cincinnati some years ago.
