White-winged Dove Bryant, Zoe, II. 1891, 189 (San José del Cabo). 
This Dove is abundant at all seasons over the entire Peninsula south of La 
Paz, breeding at every altitude from the sea-coast to the tops of the highest 
mountains. To the northward it extends at least as far as San Fernando 
(about latitude 30°), where, according to Mr. Anthony, it is rather common 
(Bryant). Mr. Frazar took fresh eggs at La Paz on March 24, and at Triunfo 
in April and again in June. On the Sierra de la Laguna the birds were mated 
in May, but apparently had not begun nesting at the date of Mr. Frazar’s de- 
parture (June 9). A few were seen on the summit of this mountain in 
December. 
The White-winged Dove occurs on or near the Pacific coast from Lower 
California and Arizona to Costa Rica.
