Empidonax pusillus. Little Flycatcher. 



In a few localities the little flycatcher was not rare. Br. Merriam 

 found it tolerably common where Beaverdam Creek joins the Virgin 

 Eiver in northwestern Arizona, May 9, aud in Pahranagat Valley, 

 Nevada, May 22-26. 



In Owens Valley, California, Mr. Stephens found it a rather common 

 migrant at Olancha, May 16-23, and the writer secured two specimens 

 in a willow thicket along Owens Eiver, at Lone Pine, June 11. Mr. 

 Palmer shot one near Old Fort Tejon July 3, and Mr. Nelson saw a few 

 among the willows along streams from 2,940 to 2,900 meters (9,000 to 

 9,500 feet) altitude, in the White Mountains, in the same month.
