A Record of the Myrtle Warbler for Box Elder County, Utah.-On May 7, 1946, at the Bear River Migratory Bird Refuge, Brigham, Utah, a male Myrtle Warbler (Dendroica coronatcr) was first observed by Lloyd F. Gunther and John B. Van den Akker. On various occasions for the following five weeks it was also observed in the same vicinity. This record is of interest in that this warbler has not been previously listed as occurring in this section of the state. The only other known . record is that reported by Cottam (Wilson Bull., 54, 1942:254), who reports a specimen taken on October 9,1870, barely in Utah, in the Uinta Mountains in the extreme northeastern corner of the state. -LLYOD  F. GUNTHER and JOHN B. VAN DEE AKKER, Bear River Refuge, Brigham, Utah, June 28,1946
