American Goldenqe in Sonora, Mexico.-While on a collecting trip during the mon;h of February, 1951, I observed a pair of American Golden-eyes (Bucephala clangula) on a small lagoon three miles north of Guaymas, Sonora, Mexico. These birds swam about on thii lagoon for the 10 days that we camped at Guaymas, and we had abundant opportunity to observe them. This species is not listed by van Rossem in his distributional survey of Sonoran birds (Oct. Papers Mus. Zool., Louisiana State Univ., no. 21, 1945).-ERNEST S.
