"December 31, 1943."
"Many of the shore birds that breed in the arctic of eastern Asia or Alaska were first discovered in their winter range in the islands of the Pacific ... species that were selected for this study are ... Pacific golden plover (Pluvialis dominica fulva); bristle-thighed curlew (Numenius tahitiensis); Pacific godwit (Limosa lapponica baueri); gray-rumped tattler (Heteroscelus incanus brevipes); wandering tattler (Heteroscelus incanus incanus); turnstone (Arenaria interpres); [and] sanderling (Crocethia alba)."
"Winter range and migration season in Polynesia of seven species of shore birds have been determined. They are characteristic for each of the species. Of the three circumpolar species, only the golden plover is common throughout the Pacific. The turnstone and the sanderling have restricted winter ranges. The American wandering tattler, although nesting in in the Americas (Alaska), winters primarily in Polynesia. Breeding range and winter range of the bristle-thighed curlew are geographically restricted. Non-breeding individuals of nearly all the species are found in their winter ranges during the northern summer months"--P. 9.
