Parus hudsonicus.

This species is a common resident of the Maritime Provinces 

 and the islands in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, though in the south- 

 ern parts of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia it is most numerous 

 in winter. It is abundant during the entire year in Labrador, in 

 Quebec to about latitude 50°, and in the Muskoka district of 

 Ontario. It is rare near the City of Quebec and in the vicinity 

 of Montreal, and for Southern Ontario the only record is of one 

 example taken near Ottawa by Mr. W. L. Scott. Prof Macoun 

 met it at Porcupine Mountain, and it has been taken at Great 

 Slave Lake, but there is no record for Manitoba or the Hudson'§ 

 Bay region.
