BARTRAM'S SANDPIPER. Bartramia longicauda (Bechstein). The first authenticated occurrence of this larger wanderer from America was near AVarwick at the end of October 1851. A second example (in the collection of Mr. J. H. Gurney) was killed in a ploughed field in Cambridgeshire on December 12th 1854; one, now in the Taunton Museum, appears to have been shot more than forty years ago on the banks of the Parret in Somersetshire; the late Dr. Bullmore had a Cornish specimen shot on November 13th 1865, and Dr. Leverton of Truro has another taken in October 1883 ; Mr. G. Bolam obtained one from the sea-banks of North- umberland on November 21st 1879; and a freshly-killed specimen, purchased in Leadenhall Market and said to come from Lincoln- shire, was identified by Mr. Harting on October 27th 1880. The late Mr. A. G. More examined a bird said to have been sent to a Dublin game-dealer from Ballinasloe, co. Galway, in the autumn of 1855, and Mr. R. M. Barrington has a specimen shot near Bandon, CO. Cork, on September 4th 1894. There are several records of the visits of Bartram's Sandpiper to the Continent, but the only satisfactory instances are those of a bird killed in Liguria in 1859 (now in the Museo Civico at Genoa), and
