No seasonal differences in this distribution were noted. Banding and Movements No Sanderlings were banded by the POBSP nor were any found which had been previously banded. RED PHALAROPE Phalaropus fulicarius Fleet found a male winter-plumaged Red Phalarope with an injured wing on the beach near the east end of the runway on 13 March 1^6k. Another Red Phalarope in winter plumage was found dead in the north antenna field on 16 April I969. Red Phalaropes occur uncommonly at sea in the central Pacific and have been recorded in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands from Pearl and Hermes Reef and Laysan (Clapp and Woodward, 1968). RING-BILLED GULL Larus delawarensis A female Ring-billed Gull in first nuptial plumage was found dead on 22 February I963 by Coast Guard personnel and obtained by Sibley. Ring-billed Gulls have been recorded from Pearl and Hermes Reef, Molokai, and Maui in the Hawaiian Islands (Clapp and Woodward, 1968). HERRING GULL Larus argentatus vegae Sibley collected three Herring Gulls in first winter plumage near the west point on 10 March 1963. Other specimens were collected on.
