_Remarks._--The Marsh Snipe is a regular visitor to western Micronesia, being recorded from the Mariana and Palau islands. At Angaur on September 21, 1945, the NAMRU2 party observed four birds at the edge of a brackish water swamp, which was margined with reeds and other vegetation. Birds were not seen on tidal beaches at Peleliu. Strophlet (1946:537) records the Marsh Snipe at Guam on October 21 and December 3, 1945. =Gallinago gallinago gallinago= (Linnaeus) Common Snipe _Scolopax Gallinago_ Linnaeus, Syst.

Winters in southern part of breeding range and south to Africa and east to Malaysia. In Micronesia: Mariana Islands--Saipan. _Remarks._--From Micronesia there is a single record of the taking of this bird at Saipan, apparently by Japanese collectors. It is probably an occasional straggler to the area, but owing to its similarity to _Gallinago megala_ it may not often be recognized in the field. =Crocethia alba= (Pallas) Sanderling _Trynga alba_ Pallas, in Vroeg's Cat., 1764, Adumbr., p. 7.
