We document the southern most photographic record and the first in Mexican inland waters of the White-winged Scoter (Melanitta fusca). On December 12, 2013 we observed an adult female of this species in the Laguna de Refugio Salcido, in the municipality of Durango, located 15 km from the city of Durango, on; at about 1,450 m southeast of its winter distribution.
