1 20 NORTH AMERICAN FAUNA 76 



personal communication) and 9 days between 13 June and 1 6 July 1984 

 (one to four birds; D. R. Herter et al., personal communication); and 

 single birds were noted in or near willows at Chagvan Bay on 22-27 May 

 1987 (D. F. Parmelee and J. M. Parmelee, unpublished). We saw one 

 young white-crowned sparrow at the Togiak River on 8 August 1973. 



Harris' sparrow (Zonotrichia queruld). Vrv. 



This sparrow was found only once. A single adult male was collected 

 on 1 July 1990 at Cape Peirce (K. Winker and J. Klicka, unpublished). 

 This specimen is the first record for western Alaska. Previous records in 

 Alaska include one bird collected at Colville River on 25 June 1958 

 (Gabrielson and Lincoln 1959), two birds at Barrow on 11 June 1973 

 (Kessel and Gibson 1978), and numerous records in south-coastal 

 Alaska. 



Dark-eyed junco (Junco hyetnalis), Usr, Rfm, VRwr (29 May-4 Sep- 

 tember). Specimen: RMS1974/1 19/11. 



Juncos nested in the northern Kilbuck Mountains and migrated 

 along the coast in fall. Birds nested each year in moderate-to-low num- 

 bers at the Salmon and Tuluksak rivers and possibly nested at the 

 Kisaralik River. Juncos were uncommon in the Nyac area on 1 5 July 1980 

 (Mindell 1983), seen on 21 June 1987 at the Kisaralik River (B. J. 

 McCaffery, personal communication), and seen on 23 and 27 July 1985 

 at the Kwethluk River (M. Brown et al., unpublished). Six birds were 

 seen at Cape Peirce between 29 August and 4 September 1976. 



Territorial birds were 75-300 m asl in open spruce forests with 

 dense understory and in riparian mixed-spruce forest edges. We found 

 3.3 pairs per square kilometer in disturbed and 8.6 pairs per square 

 kilometer in undisturbed riparian habitats at the Tuluksak River in 1983. 

 Young fledged there beginning the first week in July 1962, mid-July 

 1974, and from 26 June 1978; family groups were common to 28 July 

 1974 and 21 July 1978. Juncos were at Nyac in some winters (C. Awe, 

 personal communication; J. Bloomquist, personal communication; 

 C. Clark, Jr., personal communication), but our latest date there was 

 23 August 1977. Juncos were at the Kisaralik River in fall 1985 

 (1-15 birds per day on 25-26 August; M. Brown et al., unpublished). 



Lapland longspur (Calcarius lapponicus). Aspm, Asr, Afm (28 

 April-27 September). 



We found longspurs throughout the mainland and at offshore is- 

 lands. In inland areas, they nested at the Salmon, Tuluksak, and Kisaralik 

 rivers and Kagati Lake (M. J. Fry, unpublished). They were common 

 along the Kisaralik River in 1982 (Mindell 1983); seen there in 1985
