214 BIRDS OF OHIO. 



ORDER TUBINARES. Tube-nosed Swimmers. 



The order is represented by a single species, three indi- 

 viduals of which were probably blown inland by a severe 

 southeast storm, reaching Cincinnati on the Ohio river. 

 Being wholly accidental in the state, and unlikely to occur 

 again except under similar conditions, the species does not 

 figure economically. 



Family PROCELLARIID^:. Petrels, etc. 



2. (98.) ^STRELATA HASITATA (Kuhl.). . 



Black-capped Petrel. 

 Synonym: Procellaria hasitata. 

 Lindahl, Auk, XVI, 1899, 75. 



This reference may not be earlier than the Seventh Annual 

 Report, Ohio State Academy Sciences, 56, same author, but ab- 

 sence of a specific date in that publication makes the above 

 reference take precedence. 



Two specimens were taken alive on October 5, 1898, on 

 the Ohio shore, and one on October 4, the preceding day, on 

 the Kentucky shore. All died in captivity and found their 

 way into the collection of the Cin. Soc. Nat. Hist. All were 

 in a starved condition, and therefore easily captured. Dr. 

 Lindahl says that a severe northeast storm probably drove 

 them inland. 



Accidental from the east. 



ORDER STEGANOPODES. Totipalmate Birds. 

 Family FREGATID^E. Man-o'-War Bird. 



But a single specimen of the single species comprising 

 this family has been taken in the state, reference to which is 

 given under the species. 



3. (128.) FREGATA AQUILA Linn. . 



Man-o'-War Bird. 

 Synonyms: Pelecanus aquilus, Tachypetes aquilus. 



Frigate, Frigate Pelican, Hurricane Bird.
