BIRDS OF THE PACIFIC DISTRICT. 



255 



Haywards. Dr. Cooper (Proc. Nat. Mus., 1879). 

 Winter visitant; arrived October 12, 1875; left May 1. 



Saticoy. Dr. Cooper (Proc. Nat. Mus., 1879). Arrive 

 November 5, 1872. 

 289. Turdus sequoiensis Belding. Big Tree Thrush. 



Sierra Nevada Mountains, San Bernardino, Calaveras, 

 Placer counties (Coast Range, Monterey Co.?) 



I think the specimen from San Bernardino Mountains 

 that I saw, collected by Mr. Price, identical with speci- 

 mens I got at Calaveras and Placer counties, but hardly 

 know what to think of the specimens Mr. Bryant got 

 near Monterey in the summer of 1889. They may be 

 like those Dr. Merrill got at Fort Klamath (See Auk, 

 1888, page 365), and there may be still another unde- 

 scribed, small, pallid thrush, that breeds in California. 

 More specimens and observations are much needed to 

 determine some of the difficult questions concerning 

 these birds. 



[Upon a request from Mr. Belding I have measured 

 all the available small thrushes which are referable to T. 

 sequoiensis and present the dimensions here. — W. E. B.J
