21. Stercorarius longicaudus. LOoNG-TAILED JAEGER.—The 
male mentioned by Mr. Loomis still remains the only specimen 
on record from this region. 
22. Rissa tridactyla. KiTTIwAKE.—One was taken Novem- 
ber 22, 1904. A few were noted during December, 1904, and 
January, 1905. ~ In February (of) the Matter” year they were 
common. 
On my arrival in February, 1907, I found them common; for 
a time they were the commonest gulls of the vicinity. They 
remained until the latter part of April, several being seen on 
the 25th. In the following autumn, I saw one on the 6th of 
November; they became common in December and in Jan- 
uary, 1908. 
In the fall of 1909 and through the following winter, to the 
end of my stay on January 22, only a few were met with, the 
first on November 15. 
23. Larus hyperboreus. GLAuCcouS GuLL.—To the two 
specimens mentioned by Mr. Loomis, I am able to add a 
third, a white bird captured by Mr. Manuel Duarte in Mon- 
terey Harbor and mounted by him and now on exhibition in 
his store in Monterey. 
24. Larus glaucescens. GLAUCOUS-WINGED GULL.—In this 
vicinity, as elsewhere on the coast of middle California, this 
gull is abundant in the winter season. My earliest date is 
October 25. In 1907, the majority had departed by May 10. 
25. Larus occidentalis. WeESTERN GULL.—Through most of 
the year this gull is abundant. Several sets of eggs were taken 
June 6, 1907, at Point Carmel, where a few pairs of these birds 
nest. 
26. Larus argentatus. HERRING GuLL—While not as 
abundant as the two preceding species, still it is tolerably 
common during the winter season, arriving early in fall and 
- lingering on into May. 
27. Larus californicus. CALIFORNIA GULL.—As in other 
localities along the coast of middle California, this gull is 
abundant in winter. It makes its appearance in this vicinity 
toward the end of summer and departs late in spring. 
28. Larus delawarensis. RING-BILLED GULL.—Found in fall, 
winter, and spring,.but it is not common hereabouts. It 
appears to be a bird of the quieter waters, being more numer- 
ous at the mouth of the Salinas River.
