Geographi- 

 cal distribu- 

 tion. 



The Alaskan Semipalmated Stint is only a Western form of the Canadian Semipaimated 

 Stint, from which it scarcely differs except in having a slightly longer bill, as has been 

 already pointed out. 



It breeds in Alaska, passes on migration along the American shores of the Pacific, 

 visits many of the inland waters west of the Rocky Mountains, and winters on the coast 

 of Central America.
