It also occurs abundantly on migration on the Pacific coast of the American continent (Coues, Ibis, 1866, p. 271), and inland in the valley of the Saskatchewan (where a few probably remain to breed), and occasionally on the Atlantic coast. It appears to winter on the Pacific coast of Guatemala (Salvin, Ibis, 1865, p. 191) and in other parts of Central Summer plumage. EREUNETES T ACZ ANOWSKII. SIBERIAN SNIPU-BILLED SANDPIPER.
