The Ash-throated Flycatcher at Vancouver, British Columbia.-On October 7, 1953, while banding birds at Marpole, Vancouver, British Columbia, I captured an Ash-throated Flycatcher (Afyiwlurr. okrerascens). It was an adult male in delayed molt and was taken by means of a net set up in a mixed deciduous growth of maple, alder, and other broad-leaved trees. The area is fairly moist. As far as I can ascertain, this is the first record of this species in Canada. It is now specimen no. 38710 in the Kenneth Racey Collection in Vancouver. On October 11, 19.53, I captured at the same place another individual of this same species. This one was banded and released.-WM. M. HUGHES, Vancouver, British Columbia, Februurj 19, 1954.
