66 MEMOIRS OF THE NUTTALL ORNITHOLOGICAL CLUB 



io6. Crocethia alba (Pallas). 

 Sanderling. 



Gundlach's records for this species are not very convincing. He 

 says that they are seen only on salt-water beaches, which is entirely believ- 

 able, but also that he has killed a few in September. They have not reached 

 the coast of Massachusetts by September. He has no further records, 

 and I never have seen the bird in Cuba although I have in the Florida Keys. 



107. Limosa fedoa (Linne). 

 Marbled Godwit; Zarapico Real.^ 



Now excessively rare. Gundlach years ago killed a few in September 

 on the beaches near Cardenas and Jucaro. 



108. Limosa haemastica (Linne). 

 HuDsoNiAN Godwit. 



Only one record, a single specimen secured from the Havana market 

 by Gundlach. 



109. Tringa melanoleuca (Gmelin). 

 Winter Yellowlegs. 



Small bands appear during spring and autumn migrations; possibly a 

 few are winter residents. They are called up and shot, as in New England. 



''Royal' (Real) is a common augmentative, and 'Zarapico Real' is used for the large Godwits, 

 Curlews, etc.
