Winters from Malaysia east to Oceania. In Micronesia: Mariana Islands--Guam; Palau Islands--Peleliu; Caroline Islands--Truk. _Specimens examined._--Total number, 5 (2 males, 3 females), as follows: Mariana Islands, AMNH--Guam, 2 (Sept. 26); Palau Islands, USNM--Peleliu, 1 (Sept. 7); AMNH--exact locality not given, 2 (Nov. 21, 23). _Remarks._--The principal wintering grounds of the Pacific Godwit are probably in Australia and New Zealand according to Stickney (1943:5). The bird reaches these areas from Arctic breeding grounds by migrating to a great extent along the edge of the Asiatic Continent. It may also be considered as a regular migrant in western Micronesia, and probably reaches eastern Micronesia as an uncommon visitor, since it is occasionally recorded in the Hawaiian Islands. At Guam in 1945, the NAMRU2 party found the Pacific Godwit at tidal beaches on April 26 and October 15. Strophlet (1946:537) recorded one bird from Guam on October 20, 1945. At Peleliu, the NAMRU2 party found birds at beaches on September 7 and 16. Coultas (field notes) reported that "a few" were seen at Peleliu from October to December, 1931. McElroy did not find any of these birds at Truk in December, 1945. =Tringa nebularia= (Gunnerus) Greenshank
