96 The Wilson Bulletin — No. 99 



the following: May 26, 1874, a c? taken; July 12, 1875, one seen; 

 April 12, 1875, a flock seen, which was very wild, so that in spite 

 of a long and tedious chase he could not procure any; September 

 1, 1877, a $ shot. All at Suffield, Conn. 



4. Accipiter velox. 



An additional winter record is December 1, 1874, a J, taken at 

 Suflaeld, Conn, 



5. Empidonax flaviventris. 



A $ taken June 24, 1874, at Suffield, Conn. This record was in- 

 advertently omitted in the report as given in the March, 1917, Wil- 

 son Bulletin, and it is earlier than any that Sage and Bishop give 

 (Birds of Conn., p. 103), 



6. Euphagus carolinus. 



On May 11, 1874, Dr. Shores took one c? and two $$ at Suffield, 

 Conn. This is a late spring record for Connecticut, where this 

 species is not common in spring, though common in the fall. 



7. Zonotrichia leiicophrys. 



An additional record is May 23, 1875, a 5 taken at Suffield. 



8. Melospiza georgiana. 



The very few winter records given by Sage and Bishop for this 

 species show that it is a rare winter resident throughout the re- 

 gion. Dr. Shores took a specimen, a J, at Cranston, R. I., on De- 

 cember 3, 1874. 



9. Dendroica vigorsi. 



I have been requested to publish the Shores records for this 

 species in full, so here they are: June 5, 1874, a $ taken; May 

 28, 1875, a J' taken; May 3, 1877, two 5$ taken (now Nos. 1530 and 

 1599, coll. W. F. H.); June 26, 1879, a pair taken. These are all 

 from Suffield, Conn. June 22, 1880, two c?c?. one $ taken at the 

 Southwick Ponds, Mass.

 cies: June 5, 1874, a $ taken; June 6, 1874, a $ taken; May 23,
