Gavia adamsi (Gray). Hearne's statement that the bird has a white bill shows that he refers to the present species, though a Black-throated Loon, Gavia pacifica (Lawrence), is common there. Perhaps he confuses the two. At any rate, G. adamsi is abundant over much of the country traversed by him on his Coppermine journey, but I am not aware that it has been detected as far east as Hudson Bay.
