Loxia leucoptera • 
Lake Umbagog. 
1886 
February. 9 
Sent me i^i the flesh by Luman Sargent who shot them near 
the shores of Lake Umbagog. They reached me in fairly good con¬ 
dition and I shinned and dissected every one of them. The Cross¬ 
bills were all breeding and there was not the slightest difficulty 
in sexing them. In fact the sex marh in every case is absolutely 
reliable.
