i7a6.— Northern North America, south in winter to Massachusetts (to New Jersey, 

 Turnhnll), Illinois (Bidgioay), and California. Var. lapponicum from corresponding lat- 

 itudes in the Old World. 



Although this species was aot noticed by the Expeditions, it is intro- 

 duced as one undoubtedly occurring in the Missouri region in winter. 

 Dr. Cooper states that it is " common" in the dense spruce forests of 

 the Ookimbia, and probably resident in that latitude. According to 

 Dr. Newberry, proofs of its occurrence even to the Sacramento Valley 

 have been obtained. It i.s given in Mr. Wheaton's Ohio li.st, and has 

 frequently occurred in New England as far south as Massachusetts. 

 Dr. TurnbuU's notice exteuds the record to New Jersey, Mr. Eidgway's 

 to Illinois. It is said by Dr. Hatch to be very common in Minnesota.
