66. Plectrophenax nivalis. Sxow Bunting. — Snow Buntings ap- 

 peared at Port Manvers about the loth of August, after which they were 

 abundant. 



67. Calcarius lapponicus. Lapland Longspur. — Common after Aug- 

 ust 3. Breed about Nachvak and northward to Hudson Straits. South 

 of Naclivak they occur onl)' as migrants. 



68. Passerculus sandwichensis labradorius. Labrador Savanna 

 Sparrow. — The new subspecies of Pusserctilus saiid-vichensisi recently 

 separated by R. H. Howe, Jr., seems to rest on good foundation, but ranges 

 much farther north than he supposed (Lance and Loup), for I found it 

 fairly common at Port Manvers (Lat. 57 °) during last half of August and 

 the first week of September. 



69. Zonotrichia leucophrys. White-crowned Sparrow. — The most 

 abundant land bird, common wherever there was any spruce scrub. 



70. Spizella monticola. Tree Sparrow. — Rather uncommon, but 

 •widely distributed. I observed a good many at Port Manvers. 



71. Junco hyemalis. Junco. — Locally common as far as the tree line, 

 particularly at Aillik. 



72. Melospiza lincolni. Lincoln's Sparrow. — Common. A charac- 

 teristic bird of the wooded parts of the coast, as far north as Hamilton 

 Inlet. 



73. Passerella iliaca. Fox Sparrow. — Common along the southern 

 part of the coast. We found a few as far north as Aillik. 



74. Dendroica coronata. Myrtle Warbler. — Rather common on 

 the southern half of the coast. 



71;. Dendroica striata. Black-poll Warbler. — A very abundant 

 and characteristic bird, as far north as the limit of timber near Cape 

 Aillik. 



76. Seiurus noveboracensis. Water Turush. — Locally common as 

 far north as Aillik. 



77. Sylvania pusilla. Wilson's Warbler. 



78. Sylvania canadensis. Canadian Warbler. — These two warblers 

 were noticed only in the extreme south, so that they have very little claim 

 to places in this list. 



79. Anthus pensilvanicus. Titlark. — One of the most abundant 

 birds. Characteristic, with the Horned Lark, of the most barren and 

 wind-swept hilltops. Breeds very commonly. 



8qJ Parus atricapillus. Chickadee. — Locally common in timbered 

 regions. 



81. Regulus satrapa. Golden-crowned Kinglet. — Fairly common 

 in patches of spruce timber, as far as Aillik. 



82,83. Tardus ustulatus swainsoni. Olive-backed Thrush; Tardus 

 aliciae. Gray-cheeked Thrush. — One or the other of these thrushes 

 was common as far north as Aillik. I supposed they were all the Olive- 

 backed, but one which I took at Battle Harbor proved to be a Gray-cheeked 

 which leaves me somewhat in doubt as to the identity of the others. /,
