Late capture op the Yellow-bellied Flycatcher in Massachu- 
setts. — Mr. W. B. Barrows informs me that on November 29, 1876, he 
took a male Empidonax flaviventris, at Reading, Mass. The day was so 
cold that ice was forming rapidly in the shade ; yet the bird had the 
same motions which characterize it in June, and though it had an empty 
stomach, was very fat and apparently in the best of spirits. It was, how- 
ever, silent so far as was observed. I also learn from Mr. H. A. Purdie 
that a specimen of this species was taken by Mr. W. W. Eager in Newton, 
Mass., December 1, 1876. These are certainly late dates for the cap- 
ture of any species of the genus Empidonax in Massachusetts. — J. A. 
Allen, Cambridge, Mass.
