Corvus americanus hesperis. • • 



CALIFOKNIA CROW. 



This is a new sub-species, which is described in the Mamial 

 of North American Birds. 



The author says of it that it is " a very strongly characterized 

 race, which also differs markedly in habits and notes from the 

 eastern bird." He gives its habitat as " Western United States, 

 north to Washington Territory (Puget Sound), Idaho, Montana, 

 etc., south to Northern Mexico, east to Rocky Mountains." 



The California Crow will undoubtedly be found in British 

 Columbia. 



Pinicola enucleator canadensis. 



AMERICAN PINE GROSBEAK. 



This replaces pinicola enucleator — Pine Grosbeak — of the 

 Check-List, the European bird being the true enucleator. 



Pinicola enucleator kodiaka. 



KODIAK PINE GROSBEAK. 



This is a new sub-species. 



Mr. RiDGWAY, the describer, in his Manual, gives the habitat 

 as " Kodiak to Sitka, Alaska. (Also probably southward to 

 higher Sierra Nevada of California.)" 



If this bird ranges to California, it of course occurs in British 

 Columbia in the migrations, and it may possibly be resident in 

 that Province. 



Ammodramus caudacutus subvirgatus. 



ACAUI.IN SHARP-TAILED SPARROW. 



This is a new variety, discovered by Mr. Jonathan Dvvight, 

 Junior, and replaces in our fauna the typical caudacutus^ which 

 . latter has a more southern range.
