Supramity STERNIN A. 
28. Arctic Tern. 
(Sterna paradisza.) 
Only recorded from Dease Lake, Cassiar, where one 
specimen was taken by Mr. James Porter and presented to 
the Museum. It must, however, occur on the Coast, as it 
reaches as far south as California. 
29. American Black Tern. 
(Hydrochelidon nigra surinamensis.) 
Observed at Burrard Inlet, January, 1882. J. F. 
Order TUBINARES. Tube-nosed 
Swimmers. 
Famity DIOMEDEIDA. ALBaTRossEs. 
30. Black-footed Albatross. 
(Diomedea nigripes.) 
“From coast of California to Alaska.”—Ridgway’s Man- 
wal North American Birds. 
I have no record of this bird, and conclude that it passes 
along the west coast of Vancouver Island. 
31. Short-tailed Albatross. 
(Diomedea albatrus.) 
Tolerably common both coasts of Vancouver Island. A 
few have been taken in the Straits and off the mouth of 
Victoria harbour. 
Famity PROCELLARIIDA. Tue Perrets. 
32. Pacific Fulmar. 
(Fulmarus glacialis glupischa.) 
“North Pacific, south along American Coast to Western 
Mexico.” —Ridgway’s Manual of North American Birds,
