192 THe Wirnson BULLETIN—Nos. 76-77. 
Mar. 23, ’85, transient—Mrs. M. Musick (Cooke). St. Louis Co., 
abund., migratory, Sept. 21 (Hurter). Carter Co., Grandon. nest 
found ’O7 in the valley of the Little Black river (Woodruff). 
Kansas.—Rare S. R. in eastern (Snow, Taylor). The only dis- 
tinctly eastern hawk occurring in the Mississippi valley. It is 
found rarely as far west as Kas. (Cooke). S. R. in eastern part, 
rare, arrives about the first of Apr., leaves by the first of Noy.— 
at least I have not seen them later (Goss). Although I haye no 
record of its breeding, I believe it will be found a rare S. R. in 
the timber bottoms (Wetmore ms.). A rare S. R. in eastern Kas. 
(Lantz). Douglas Co., Laurence, May 4, ‘04, female, by Leverett 
A. Adams; and another female May 17, ’07, collector unknown— 
both records in the museum of the University of Kansas (Wet- 
more ms.). Shawnee Co., Topeka, migratory, rare, taken by BH. U. 
Prentice (Snow). Montgomery Co., Independence, I observed the 
species in Apr., and May 6, °06, while collecting, although none 
were taken I am reasonably sure of the bird, as I am familiar 
with it (Wetmore ms.). Ellis Co., the most westerly record being 
that of Dr. Watson at Ellis (Cooke). 
INDIAN TeRRITORY.—Occurs during the summer months occasion- 
ally (Goss). 
OKLAHOMA.—Stillwater, one shot Apr. 9, ‘9T (Cooke ms.). 
ARKANSAS.—I have, so far, not run across this species in the 
State. It should occur in some sections in the northern part, but 
I have been too busy to do much field work (Smith ms.). I haye 
no positive record of its appearance here during my 14 years resi- 
dence at Imboden, by actually getting specimens, but I feel rea- 
sonably sure I have observed them in flight while hunting on the 
lower White river. Quite a number of hawks frequent our State, 
and I have observed Swallow-tailed and Mississippi Kites here, 
but never found their nests (Bacon ms.). Van Buren Co., Clinton 
(on the Little Red rivyer—a tributary to the White river), breeds, 
seen Feb. 18 and June 5, ‘90 (Cooke ms.). 
LovuIsIaANna.—It is believed that the Broad-winged Hawk is never 
seen in the State except during the severest winter in the middle 
and eastern districts (Holmes). A fairly com, resident and breed- 
ing (Beyer). S. E., pine barrens, com. S. R.; fertile district, rare 
if not unknown (Kopman). Long-leaved pine flats region—at a 
distance varying from 50 to 75 miles from the coast on slightly 
higher grounds—S. E., com. 8. R. (Kopman). Chiefly if not en- 
tirely a S. R. and confined as a breeder to the upland region, es- 
pecially pine wood sections (Beyer, Allison and Kopman). Prairie 
Mere Rouge, one spec. (Baird). 
TexAs.—Southern, Nueces river eastward, not uncom. In May
