National Muséum, pulilisliod at Wasliinjiton, T). C, in 1883, and occup.vin}!;
tlie i)aj:ns 111 to i;{7. 1 am awaro of so few additions to the list, exceptinjj;
nrnon}! the Birds, that I reprint with but siiiiht revision. Tho Birds are
trcated of separately and at lenjith, in my pamphlet " Bird Life in Labra-
dor." The article entitl^d " List of the Crustacea Dredged on the Coast
of Labrador by the Iv\i)edition under the Direction ofW. A. Stearns, in
18S2." occupied pages 218 to 222 ; the " Ileview of the Marine Crustacea
of Labradn " pages 22.'î to 2;i2 ; the " Catalogue of Mollusca and Ecbi-
nodermata Dredged on ibe Coast of Labrador by the Expédition under
the Direction of Mr. W. A. '^tearns, in 1882," pages 2:î() to 247 of the
s;iine volume.

AH ah>n<r the ooast there are little harhors und hays some of
sinall and sotne hirge size. AH thèse phices that can harhor a
vessel co.'tain f'roni one to three and eight — tlie usnal nnnd)er
— honses. They are various distances apart, say from half a
mik' to 8 niiU's, thongh generally 3 to ô miles. It is tlius, save
in one or two rongh phiees, oasy to go ah>ng tlie coast in sniall
Ixiats, stopping hère or there in rongh weatlier or at night.

In l<S7ô I niade a snmmer exenrsion to Labrador, and re-
mained there abont two niontlis ehieHy witliin a ra(Hiisof60
miles Southwest, and 10 nortlieast oï li(»nne Espérance.

In 1880 1 visited the coast in S(>])tend)er, and remained
there the f'all, winter, and spriugot' 1880- '81, retnrning home
after an abscn(!e of just one year on the coast. During that
time I visited nearly ail the important points from Mingan to
\iv(\ lîay.

In 1882 I sp<'iit flie sum;ner <»n tlie coast again, starting from
Boston, as [ had donc in 187") (my 1880-'81 trip had been from
Ciuebec), with a party ofaliout twelve yoiing collège nien, when
much good work was doue in collecting, but (twing to insuffi-
cicnt apparatus only enough to show what n)ight be doue with
a properly iitted-ont crafrgoing for this express purpose and
no other

'rh(> Ibllowing list of mammals, birds, and plants will show
what lias been aecomj)lished in thaï line, and it is lioj)ed that
they will add, if ever so little, to our knowhdge of the J^ab-
rador fauna and tlora. Much more remains to be doue,
however, in each of thèse de|)artments.

My examinations hâve been chieHy along the sca-eoast.
The interior bas been rarely, if ever to auy great extent,
invaded by man.

ODOB.K'L'S OBKSrS, (lllitrcr) Allen. Wa/rus.

Rare aloiig tho coast of Nortlicrn I.nbrador. Two wcre
shot in 1880 and 1881, at 1m)x llarbor, St. Lewis Sound, olf
the shore a little way. A gentleman ofoiu- party obtained
tlie tu.slvs of one of tlieni, whieh wcre about 7 inches long and
nearly an ineh in dianieter.

llegavding tlie deer of Labrador soine confusion exists.
Twospecies, about equally common, are found throughout tlie
peninsula in small, or less frcqufMitly in large (300 or 400),
lierds. They are probably the following :

TARANDUS KANGIFER, Brookes, var. CARIBOU. Woodland

Otrib'iu, and

TARANDUS RANGIFP:R, Brookes, var. (îRŒNLANDICUS.

Barren Grouiid Caribou.

ALCES MALCHIS, (Linno) Gray, the Moose, and CERVUS CANA-
DENSIS, Erxleben, American Elk.
Both hâve been reported as found in the .south western por-
tion of Labrador, about north from Anticosti, but they are
doubtless very rare and oeeasional only.

OVIBOS MOSCHATUS, BlainviUe. Musl- 0.r.
On the authority of Prof. A. S. Packard a single relie of
this animal may be aeeredited to this région. Probably it was
its most Southern limit in former times.
DELPH1NAPTERU8 CATODUN, (Linné) Gill. White Whale.
Common in the St. Lawrence River, at least as far east as
Atiticosti Tsland.

MONOUON MONOCEROS, Linné. Naru-hul.
Given on the authority of Professur Packard, but it is
probably very rare.

ORCA GLADL\TOR, (Bonnaterre) Gray. Killer.
Apparently oeeasional ail along the coast.

GLOBICEPHALUS TNTERMEUIUS, (Harlan) Gray. Black-fish.

One of the whalebone whales is oocasionally taken along
the sea(!oa?<t, but which species it is I eannot tell. I am sure

BIRDS.

Tiie ibllowing li.^t of birds conipri.ses those ecdlectod dnring
a stay of twolve months on the coast in ISHO-'Sl, and also
some'additions made tho summer of 1882. A few are added
on the authority of Dr. a)ues in 1800. 1 think tbat the
number of land birds will probably be largely increased by
further investigation.

Mr. Stearns made a snmnur excursion lo Lal)rador in l.STô,

moose anJ e!k arc inost imiorlunato. 1 havo scen no évidence
to indieate that the elk ever iiihahlled the area under consid-
ération ; and the moose is known to be restrirted in its eastern
range (along the north shore ol" the St. y.awrenee) hy the Sag-

nenay.

We are int'ormed that ^.h.e white whalv {' D('lj>h'ni(tpfei'm'
catodon) is ' common in the St. Lawrence River, at least as far
as Antieosti.' It is eqnally common at certain seasons oif the
entire Labrador eoast, and great nunibers of tlieni annnally
pass tlirongh the Strait of Belle Isle.

' Gray sqnirreîs are said to occnr hcre also, but I did not
see any,' writes our author. The faihire to insî)ect the gray
squirrel on the far-otf rocky coast, should not be attributed to
ne<>-ligence or bad eyesight ; for Labrador is not only far north
of its known range, but the i)liysiograi)hieal conditi(»ns that
obtain there are sueh as W(»nld preelude its oeeupancy by this
animal, even if the area were not latitudinaliy exeluded froni

its habitat.

The concluding mamnril is the little brown bat {VespertUlo
subulatus), and the record wonld be more accepiable were it
accompanicd by the name of tlie person wiio identified the
spécimen.

The list of birds contains one hnndrcd and eleven s|»ecies,
and some startling statements.

The record of the wood thrnsh {Jfi/locich/a vimtelina) bas
already beeu (pieried by ?dr. Jîidgway, and I will only add
that I hâve found both the hermit and ihe olive-backed
thrush breeding along the north shore of the (Juif of Saint
Lawrence,

The pine grosbeak {Pinicohi enucleafor) is givcn as * com-
mon in fall and winter.' It nncpiestionably breeds through-
out Labrador, and I hâve myself found it breeding near
Point des Monts.

The common Junco is said to be ' not rare in s})ring and
fall.' Ot course it breeds. The rock Ptarmigan {L(((/opi(.s
rupesti'is) is cited as ' not rare. Generally common in winter.'

rare ncst f'ound on rhe Atlantic,' hc niii.st cniploy the terni
Atlantic in a soniewhat re.strieted sensc, for the species is
known to breed ahnndantly in Hndson's Bay and Davis
Strait, and probably along Northern Labrador as well.

IVlr. Stearns nuikes the oxtraordinary annonncement that
the Pacifu! cidcr {Somaterca v-nUjni) is ' abundant in large
docks is spring.' If this statenient can be authenticated, it
is certainly a niost interestinti' and valuable contribution to
ornithological science.

The Arctic tern (Sfcnia tiKicriira) is given as ' an abundant
spring and fall migrant in the gnif.' Large munbers breed at
certain places along the coast.

Under the head of ' lleptiles and Batrachians,' our author
tells us that we heard frogs ' in the niarshes about the niouth
of Pin vay River/ and enunierates Euna septentrional la and
J'kthodcn gintinom as having been fouud by Dr. Packard.

Without nientioning a single reptile he goes on to say,

* The re|)tilian fauna will probably be enlarged, but not
to any great extent, ' and passes directly to tiie considération
of Hshcs.

Turning to the list of plants, we find lô7 spcies enumer-
ated, twenty-eight of which are gluniaceous and cryptoga-
nious. rience oniitting the grasses and scdges, we hâve but
129 flowering plants, more than tilly of which arc included on
tlie authority of the Rev. S. R. Butler, whose list was i)ublish-
ed in the Canadian Natuvalist, in 1870. This leaves less than
oi<''htv sDccies as the resuit of our author's botanical investiga-
tions during one entire year and two summers. 1 hat this is
not wholly attributable to the nuagre flora of Labrador is
évident fnmi the fact that I hâve myself found, in an hour's
time, nearly this number of species growing in a single
locality not'reinote l'roni the seat of our author's labors.

In the followin^ pajïcs I liave attempted iiot only to revise
Professor Packard's lists, but also tojiive a complète catalogue
oi' ail the speeies known f'rom the Labrador coast. In deter-
miiiiiig- Professor Pa(!kard's spcoies I hâve been grciitly aided
by a set of his spécimens collected in 1864 and labeled by
him for the muséum of Yale Collège. Tliis collection lias en-
aliled me to détermine many of the speeies eniimerated by l^ro-
fessor Packard which were otherwise indéterminable, and also
to add a iiiimbr" of speeies overlo(d<ed or incorrectly <leter-
mincd by him. The nomenclature adojited for tln' Amphi-
poda is maiidv that of Boeck (Skandinaviske og Arktiske

Ami)hii)odcr), and for the lso])oda that of Harg(M' (Marine
Isopoda of New Kiigland. Report V. S. Fish d^m., part iv,
