At Guam in 1945, the NAMRU2 party recorded the Turnstone on its northward migration as late as March 19; on its southward migration it was first seen at Guam on July 24. On its southward migration the bird was not numerous until September. Our observations indicated that in 1945, the principal waves of migration of the Turnstone appeared approximately two weeks after those of the Pacific Golden Plover and the Whimbrel. Stickney remarks that the spring migratory season in Oceania is completed in May and that the fall migratory season begins in August. Borror (1947:417) found small flocks on the beaches at Agrihan on August 10 and 11, 1945. Bryan and Greenway (1944:112) indicate that the subspecies, _Arenaria interpres morinella_, which breeds in North America, east of Point Barrow, Alaska, may reach the Hawaiians. Careful examination of specimens from eastern Micronesia might reveal its presence there also. The name _Areneria interpres oahuensis_ (Bloxham) may apply to specimens from eastern Micronesia but Peters (1934:271) considers _oahuensis_ to be inseparable from _Arenaria interpres interpres_ (Linnaeus). =Gallinago megala= Swinhoe Marsh Snipe _Gallinago megala_ Swinhoe, Ibis, 1861, p. 343.
