1Only one species of dowitcher was recognized in Dreuth's time, Limnodromus griseus. Dowitcher was split into 2 species in 1950, Short-billed and Long-billed. Based on the dates and location, he most likely saw Short-billed Dowitcher.
2Dreuth never identified any jaeger to species.
3Almost certainly "Kumlien's" Iceland Gull. This and "Thayer's" Iceland Gull are now considered subspecies of Iceland Gull.
