WYOMING BIRDS. 
June 14, 1896. The skin is in the doctor’s collection at: 
the present writing.” (Knight.) 
Myiarchus cCinerascens Cinerascens: Ash-throated Fly- 
catcher. 
“Very rare; but may be found as a summer resident. 
Coues, ‘Birds of the Northwest,’ p. 240, remarks: ‘As in 
the case of the preceding species, Mr. Akins again fur- 
nishes a northernmost quotation, carrying the known range 
into Wyoming.’ I have been unable to find Akins’ note on 
the occurrence of M. crinitus in Wyoming, which this note 
refers to. Bond has also taken a single specimen, which is 
at the present time in the Cheyenne High School collec- 
tion.” (Knight.) The third edition of the A. O. U. check 
list says: ‘Accidental in northern Wyoming and northern 
Colorado.” We do not know their authority for the state- 
ment “northern Wyoming”; there are no recent records of 
the bird in this state, so far as we have been able to ascer- 
tain. 
Sayornis phoebe: Phoebe. 
“Very rare; probably a summer resident in eastern Wyo- 
ming, as it is only known from the very eastern side of the 
state. Cary reports a single specimen from Newcastle. I 
have heard this bird calling in the vicinity of Sundance 
and Fort Laramie, but have never taken a _ specimen.” 
(Knight. ) 
Sayornis sayus: Say’s Phoebe. 
Fairly common summer resident throughout the entire 
state at the lower altitudes. 
Nuttallornis borealis: Olive-sided Flycatcher. 
Metz and Walker are the only recent observers who record 
this bird. Apparently it is rare over the entire state. 
Myiochanes richardsoni richardsoni: Western Wood Pewee. 
Very abundant summer resident in the aspen groves of the 
lower and middle altitudes. 
Empidonax difficilis diffiicilis: Western Flycatcher. 
Probably occurs over the entire state. Blackwelder ob- 
served them in the Tetons and Walker found them during 
a migration at Green River. Dr. Jesurun was the only 
early observer who found this bird.
