True records one from Moose Factory and one trom Rupert House, James Bay;' C. L. Her- rick secured a single specimen in Minnesota;' R, Kennicott mentions* its occurrence at Fort Ripley, Minn.; Bailey gives it as scarce at Elk River, Minn.' At Duluth it is not uncommon; there is a local specimen in the High School Museum. It is eni:red as Manitoban, on the authority of W. R. Hine, who assures me that specimens have been brought to his taxidermist shop in Winnipeg; unfortunately, they were not kept. At Nipigon it was taken by G. S. Miller, who found it in seemmgly abundance at Peninsula Harbor also.* Outram Bangs records' the capture of a specimen at Lake Edward, south of Lake St. John, Quebec. But elsewhere' ' Mam. H.
