Pelecanus occidentalis. First recorded for Colorado by H. G. Smith (Con- 
dor XII, 1910, 133) from a specimen taken at Thomasville and now in the State 
Aluseum. 
Coccyzus americanus. Included by Cooke in his original ‘Birds of Colo- 
rado’ on Bendire's record: later withdrawn by Cooke (Auk, xxvi, 1909, 412) as 
the evidence seemed insufficient. Now restored by Sclater based on a specimen 
taken by Aiken, June 4, 1898, at Ramah. This specimen has been sent to the 
Biological Survey and the identification confirmed by Oberholser. Sclater con- 
siders all of the yellow-billed cuckoos of Colorado east of the Rocky Mountains 
to belong to this form, while he is doubtful whether the western form, occidentalis, 
deserves a place in the li.st. 
Three yellow-billed cuckoos lately sent to the Biological Survey for identi- 
fication by L. J. Hersey include both forms, and queerly enough one taken in the 
mountains on Clear Creek, Augmst 23, 1910, is aincricaniis. while one taken on 
the plains at Barr, July 25, 1911, is occidentalis. 
Phalaenoptilus nuttalli nitidus. Sclater follows the A. O. U. Check-List 
in considering this a valid form and entitled to a place in the Colorado list. Cooke 
included it originally, but dropped it as being only a color phase of nnttalli. 
Chordeiles acutipennis texensis. This addition to the Colorado list was 
secured by Aiken, June 11, 1908, at Iloehne, near Trinidad. 
Empidonax trailli alnorum. Added to the Colorado list by Sclater from a 
specimen taken May 27, 1905, by Aiken near Limon. The identification has since 
been confirmed by Oberholser. Since this form breeds in British Columbia and 
eastern Alontana it is not strange that it should pass through eastern Colorado in 
migration. 
Empidonax griseus. First recorded for Colorado by Ridgway (Birds 
N. and Alid. Am. i\', 1907, 571) from a specimen taken ATay 24, at Newcastle. 
Sclater adds the record of one taken by Aiken Afay 3, 1872, near Fountain. A 
specimen now in the Biological Survey was taken by Cary September 5, 1906, in 
the Escalente Flills of western Routt County. 
Otocoris alpestris enthymia. Sclater follows Oberholser in recognizing 
this form and considering it a winter visitant to Colorado. This form has been 
rejected by the A. O. U.' Committee. 
Agclaius phoeniccus. Sclater recognizes two forms of red-winged black-
