Ereunetes preserved, 14 were identified by Mr. Ridgway as occi- 
dentales, and these too were taken at random from a lot of 
about 25 dead birds” (Hugh M. Smith, Auk, xi, 385). Several 
were shot at Virginia Beach, on September 6 and 7, 1884, by 
Messrs. Henry Seebohm and C. W. Beckham (Auk, xi, 101). 
Two have been taken in New Jersey: one on September 14, ’80, 
the other on May 17, ’92 (Birds E. Pa. and N. J., 75). 
Calidris arenaria (248). Sanderling. 
Abundant coastwise during migrations; several were seen 
and one shot at Cobb’s Island on May 20 (91, Fisher), and one 
was taken at Ocean City on September 23 (’94, Tylor). 
“Near Washington one was taken on September 23, ’94, by 
Wm. Palmer; another in ’74, and one on October 24, ’85, at 
Gravelly Run” (Richmond). 
“ Abundant transient on the New Jersey coast, keeping pretty 
much to the beach, April 18 to June 1, September 14 to October 
15. Some also are said to remain through the winter. Dr. W. 
L. Abbott secured one specimen in the spring migration as late 
as June 13. Occasional on the lower Delaware” (Birds E. 
Pa. and N. J., 75). 
Limosa fedoa (249). Marbled Godwit. 
This species “does not appear to go far along the Atlantic 
coast northward” (Key, 635). Rather rare transient on the 
New Jersey coast, where it seems to have been more plentiful 
formerly ; occurs in May, and again from the last week of July 
to September 15. Dr. Warren states that a few have been 
captured in recent years in Lancaster, Philadelphia and Dela- 
ware Counties” (Birds E. Pa. and N. J., 75). 
Limosa hzemastica (251). Hudsonian Godwit. 
“Much less abundant in the United States than the preceding, 
and appears to range chiefly along the Atlantic coast” (Birds N. 
W., 494). “On May 16, ’86, I shot a Hudsonian Godwit at
