mon. The former states that an acquaintance found 

 a flock of probably 1 00 feeding on the muddy bot- 

 tom of an emptied mill dam near West Chester, in 

 the latter part of August, about 1882 (Bds. Pa., 

 36). Wilson finds it common in Highland Twp. 

 in March and September, often in flocks of ten to 

 fifty. A mounted specimen taken in August, 1884, 

 is in his collection. It has recently been reported 

 by G. H. Hallett, Jr., May 13, Brinton's dam, and 

 May 22, 191 1, Westtown (Cass, xv, 43). 



55. Ereunetes pusillus Semipalmated Sandpiper, 

 "peep." Rare transient. Wilson gives it as a com- 

 mon migrant in Highland Twp., during decade 

 1 880-1 890. 



56. Totanus melanoleucus Greater Yellowlegs. 

 Rare transient. Given by Barnard and Michener. 

 There are two recent migration records, both by 

 I. G. Roberts, of West Chester: Apr. 24, 191 1, and 

 May 17, 1914 (Cass., xv, 55, and xviii, 53). 



57. Totanus flavipes Yellow-legs. Rare transi- 

 ent. Dr. Michener considered it frequent, and Dr. 

 Warren has recorded the following captures; Apr. 

 30 and May 7, 1879; Oct. 10 (4 specimens), 

 1880; Aug. 30, 1882. (Bds. Pa., 38). 



58. Helodromas solitarius solitarius Solitary 

 Sandpiper, "tiltup," "wood peep." Regular trans- 

 ient. Dr. Montgomery has often found it in flocks 

 of considerable size in the spring, and has shot one 

 and seen others in the sum.mer. The data for spring 

 and fall arrival, however, is all too scanty: 



May 5 (i88o)— May 14 (1883); ave. 7 yrs.
