Auk, .XIII, April, 1896, p , 173 , 
Crymophilus fulicarius in Maine.: — It seems worth while to make a note 
of the capture of some recent specimens of the Red Phalarope ( Crymo - 
p/tilus fulicarius) on the southwestern coast of Maine, not only because 
the bird is uncommon there, but because data as to the exact time of its 
occurrence are not at all full. An adult female in fine plumage was taken 
on Peak Island, Portland Harbor, on May 17, 1892, and is now in my col- 
lection. Two other specimens were sent to me in the flesh from York 
Beach, May S, 1893. — Henry II. Brock, Portland, Me.
