 - Bug in :meth:`DatetimeIndex.intersection` and :meth:`TimedeltaIndex.intersection` with results not having the correct ``name`` attribute (:issue:`33904`)
 - Bug in :meth:`DatetimeArray.__setitem__`, :meth:`TimedeltaArray.__setitem__`, :meth:`PeriodArray.__setitem__` incorrectly allowing values with ``int64`` dtype to be silently cast (:issue:`33717`)
 - Bug in subtracting :class:`TimedeltaIndex` from :class:`Period` incorrectly raising ``TypeError`` in some cases where it should succeed and ``IncompatibleFrequency`` in some cases where it should raise ``TypeError`` (:issue:`33883`)
+- Bug in constructing a Series or Index from a read-only NumPy array with non-ns
+  resolution which converted to object dtype instead of coercing to ``datetime64[ns]``
+  dtype when within the timestamp bounds (:issue:`34843`).
 - The ``freq`` keyword in :class:`Period`, :func:`date_range`, :func:`period_range`, :func:`pd.tseries.frequencies.to_offset` no longer allows tuples, pass as string instead (:issue:`34703`)
