206 '1'?i]? ?ONBOR VoL. xI Nine adults (nos. 4700-4708), October 1.0, 15 and 17, 1899, November 5, 1900, and January 20, 1901. These are uniform in the characters of the Alaskan-interior race; they have an extreme of white, both in the matter of extent and clearness. Say0rnis saya yuk0nensis Bishop. Yukon Phoebe. Adult male (no. 4594), May 5, 1901: wing, 107.5; tail, 83.6; culmen, 14; bill from nostril, 11.7; width of bill at base, 7.1. This example, as compared with saya from California, has longer wing and tail, relatively broader and shorter bill, and very slightly darker coloration. These differences appear to me to indicate a well-markt northern race of saya as pointed out by Bishop (Auk XVII, April 1900, p. 115). 0tocoris alpestris arcticola Oberholser. Alaska Horned Lark. Adult female (no. 4593), May 10, 1898. Pica pica budsonia (Sabine). Magpie. Adult female (no. 4524), October 15, 1899.

Four adults (nos. 4562-4565), April 8, 1898, April 12, 189% and October 15, 1900. Loxia leucoptera Gmelin. White-winged Crossbill. Eleven skins (nos. 4573- 4583), March 28, April 8, May 1 and May 2, 1898. No. 4581, May 1, is a full- grown juvenal. Acanthis linctic linctic (Linnaeus). Common Redpoll. Male adult (no. 4615), April 20, 1898; female (age ?) (no. 4616), October 17, 1900; immature fe- male (no. 4623), November 5, 1900. Acanthis hornemannii exilipes (Coues). Hoary Redpoll.
