The majority of birds Identified as Lesser Frlgateblrds 
was seen near Mckean Island on 23 July. An enormous breeding 
colony is presently based on that Island. Most of the unidentified 
frlgateblrds were recorded near Jarvis Island and are likely a 
combination of the two species, both of which are breeding there 
in moderate numbers. Three Lesser Frlgateblrds were collected during 
the cruise. 
Golden Plover A=0 B=0 0=6 
Two birds each were recorded on 20, 22, and 24 August enroute 
from the Southern Grid to Oahu. These are in all llkelyhood early- 
southward migrating individuals from the northern breeding grounds. 
One specimen was collected. 
Huddv Turnstone A=0 B=0 0=3 
As with the previous species, the only sightings were recorded 
between the Southern Grid and Oahu on the return portion of the 
cruise.These likewise probably represent early southward migrants 
from the breeding grounds. 
Brlstle-thished Ourlew A=0 B=4 0=0 
One bird was sighted south of McKean Island on 25 July and 
three others on 11 August one day west of Jarvis. The latter 
sightings were probably southward migrants since this species 
apparently exhibits little Interisland movement except during 
migration.
