Miscellaneous Avian Fossil Records From California

Abstract

In the past ten years a number of fragmentary bones of fossil birds have come to my notice. Since, for the most part, they are isolated specimens incapable of definite specific identification, no published records were made. With several such occurrences now at hand, however, it seems desirable to report upon them, particularly as they add to the known localities from which avian fossils have been obtained. All are from fossil deposits in southern California.
