265. Hylocichla fuscescens fuliginosa Howe.* NeEw- 
FOUN’LLAND THRUSH. 
Undoubtedly an uncommon spring and late autumn migrant. 
The only definite record is: Zanesboro, one taken on September 
27, 1900, by Dr. Walter Faxon and now in the Museum of Com- 
parative Zoédlogy.! It is interesting to note that Dr. J. A. Allen 
in his “ Birds of Springfield ” published in 1864 (pp. 57, 58) in his 
discussion of the right of Alice’s Thrush to recognition wrote: 
“ Among individuals of Zurdus fuscescens, collected the past 
summer at Springfield, I have detected a difference similar 
in kind and as great in degree as that separating forms hereto- 
fore considered typical respectively of Z. swainsonid and 7. alicia. 
Thus one specimen is very highly colored throughout, being very 
bright veddish brown above, and has the breast bright reddish buff, 
of about the same tint as is highly colored Z. szwaznsonzz, and the 
spots very distinct, while the other is very pale throughout, being 
of a decidedly ye//owish brown above, and has the breast pale buff, 
and the spots more indistinct than in the first.” Dr. Allen, it will 
be seen, was obviously describing Af fudiginosa as compared 
with A. fuscescens.
