Todd: The Birds of the Isle of Pines. 167 



Very few birds, however, were noticed here on the occasion of Mr. 

 Link's visit, March 22 and 23, 1913. Mr. Zappey seems to have 

 penetrated thus far on his second expedition, since the locality is 

 mentioned once in his report. 



Punta del Potrero. — The easternmost point of the northern or main 

 island. 



Punta de la Bihijagua. — ^A point on the northeastern coast of the 

 island. 



Punta Primera de Salinas. — A point on the coast, east of Punta 

 de la Bibijagua, which is probabl}^ the locality referred to by Messrs. 

 Bangs and Zappey under the name " Salina." It is probably the 

 same as Rincon Lagoon, so called by Mr. Link. 



Punta Frances. — See Cabo Frances. 



Rincon Lagoon. — A large lagoon adjacent to the coast, east of Bibi- 

 jagua, visited by Mr. Link, and probably the same as the locality 

 called " Salina " by Messrs. Bangs and Zappey. For a fuller de- 

 scription see page 152. 



Rio de la Majagiia (Majagua River). — A small river in the south- 

 western part of the main island, northwest of Los Indios, visited by 

 Mr. Link on several occasions. Like all the rivers of this part, its 

 lower course is fringed with mangroves. 



Rio de las Nuevas {Niievas or Neiv River). — The longest river in 

 the island, draining a large part of the central and northwestern sec- 

 tion. It is too shallow, however, to permit the ascent of any but small 

 vessels, and is fringed with mangroves as far up as the town of 

 McKinley, beyond which the jungle comes to the water's edge. 



Rio del Mai Pais. — One of the tributaries of the Rio Jucaro, rising 

 near the center of the main island, and flowing in a northeast direction. 



Rio Jucaro. — A good-sized river in the northeastern part of the 

 main island, formed by the junction, near Jucaro, of several smaller 

 streams. 



" Rio " Santiago. — See Arroyo Santiago. 



Rio Sierra de Casas {Casas River). — A river in the northern part of 

 the main island, navigable for small steamers for about two miles from 

 its mouth, or to the town of Nueva Gerona. 



" Salina." — See Punta Primera de Salinas. 



San Francisco de la Vega. — An unsurveyed tract adjoining the 

 Cienaga, visited in 1904 by Mr. Zappey, who refers to it merely as 

 " La Vega."
