meet with it. Specimens were taken by him in March, 1902, but it 

 was not encountered during his second trip. The Isle of Pines seems 

 to be about the southern limit of the winter range of the species. 



Bibliography. 

 The following chronological list of titles embraces all in which there 

 have been found any references, however trivial, to the birds of the 

 Isle of Pines. The list is believed to be practically complete, and in- 

 cludes not only original references, but also papers containing allusions 

 to or quotations from such sources. More than half of the titles are 

 credited to Mr. Arthur C. Read, some of whose articles appeared in 

 a local newspaper, a file of which is unobtainable, and most of the 

 remainder in an amateur ornithological journal, seldom cited by sys- 

 tematic authorities. The writer of course is aware that it is not 

 customary to consider newspaper articles in compiling a scientific 

 bibliography, especially in such a case as this, where they are not 

 available for general reference, and they are given here merely for the 

 sake of completeness, and because some of the matter they contain 

 has been used in preparing the present paper. All titles have been 

 transcribed literally, and the place and date of publication given in 

 full.

Contains a nominal list (pages 426-7) of sixty-three species of birds 



observed by Gundlach during a six days' stay in the vicinity of Nueva 



Gerona. As we learn from other sources, this was in January, 1854, and 



numerous winter resident birds are naturally included in the list.
