(1919:494) listed _D. s.
symplectus_ from Pabinas (=Sabinas?).

**_Dendrocopos scalaris giraudi_ (Stone).--_Specimen examined:_ one,
[Male] 34623, from 12 mi. N, 10 mi. E Parras, 3850 ft., July 12, 1953,
weight, 35 gms.

Ridgway (1914:259) reported that _D. s. giraudi_ (then called
_Dryobates scalaris bairdi_) has been recorded from La Ventura,
Carneros, and Jaral. Oberholser (1912:159) indicated that the
subspecies _giraudi_ occurs north to Jaral in southern Coahuila, east
to La Ventura in southeastern Coahuila, and south through central
Mexico. The present specimen is darker ventrally than specimens of
either _D. s. cactophilus_ or _D. s. symplectus_, and on its upper
surface the black bars are wider than the white. The specimen is in
worn plumage, but nevertheless suggests intergradation with _D. s.
symplectus_.

_Platypsaris aglaiae albiventris_ (Lawrence).--The Rose-throated
Becard, if it occurs in Coahuila at all, is rare in the State. Without
giving any specific locality, Sclater (1857:74) described
_Pachyrhamphus aglaiae_ from Coahuila. Hellmayr (1929:202) considered
Sclater's record as representing _Platypsaris aglaiae albiventris_
(Lawrence).

*_Tyrannus vociferans vociferans_ (Swainson).--_Specimens examined:_
total 2: [Male] 32064 from 7 mi. S, 4 mi. E Bella Union, 7200 ft., June
24, 1952; and [Female] 31650 from the north foot of Sierra Guadalupe
(=10 mi. S, 5 mi. W General Cepeda), 6400 ft., April 15, 1953.

The small number of records of Cassin's Kingbird in Coahuila is
surprising, for I would expect the species in most areas of the State
between 6000 and 7000 feet. All Coahuilan records are from the
southeastern part of the State. Burleigh and Lowery (1942:193) found it
"on infrequent occasions in the arid country near Saltillo." Miller,
Friedmann, Griscom, and Moore (1957:71) reported that _T. v.
vociferans_ nested in Coahuila on July 7. The size of the testes (15x7
mm.) of our specimen from near Bella Union also indicates breeding.

**_Muscivora forficata_ (Gmelin).--_Specimen examined:_ one, [Female]
32063, from 12 mi. N, 12 mi. W Jimenez, 850 ft., June 19, 1952.

The status of the Scissor-tailed Flycatcher in Coahuila is uncertain.
Although the condition of the gonads of No. 32063 was not recorded by
the collector, the late date (June 19) on which is was obtained
suggests that this female was a resident in northeastern Coahuila.
Findley saw a Scissor-tailed Flycatcher 2 mi. S and 11 mi. E N
