EMPIDONAX HAMMONDI, Bd. 



Hammond's Flycatcher. 



This species, which appears to be the Western representative of mm*- 

 WMS, was only found in the Rocky Mountains, where a single specimen 

 was secured in August. 



List of specimens. 



EMPIDONAX OBSGURUS, Bd. 



Weight's Flycatcher. 



Instead of frailU var. jausillus, which I expected to find in the Rocky 

 Mountains, this species was taken in that locality. The occurrence so 

 far beyond its hitherto-known range is particularly interesting. Three 

 specimens were taken during the latter part of August. The bird 

 doubtless breeds in this region, which is the northernmost point by far 

 at which it has been observed.
