99. Geothlypis trichas occidentalis Brewst. Western Yellow-throat. 



Sparingly found in the immediate vicinity of running water 

 around Tucson. 



100. Icteria virens longicauda Lawr. Long-tailed Chat. 

 Abundant in the valley. 



101. Setophaga picta (Swains.). Painted Redstart. 



This exquisite species was common in the Catalina jiine woods 

 and the upper edge of the oak belt. 



102. Cardellina rubrifrons (Giraud). Red-faced Warbler. 



The above remarks apply equally to this species, though its range 

 does not extend so far up as that of the Redstart. 



103. Mimus polyglottos Linn. Mockingbird. 



AVithout exception the most abundant bird in the country, 

 ranging up to 5000 or 6000 feet. 



104. Harporhyncus curvirostris palmeri Ridgw. Palmer's Thrasher. 



To the best of my recollection Palmer's Thrasher was the com- 

 monest species of the genus, ranging somewhat lower than the 

 following. 



105. Harporhyncus bendirei Coues. Bendire's Thrasher. 

 Found abundantly from the plains up to 4000 feet. 



106. Harporhyncus crissalis (Henry). Crissal Thrasher. 



Equal in abundance and with a similar range to H. hencUrei. 



107. Campylorhynchus brunneicapillus (Lafr.). Cactus Wren. 

 Abounding in all dry situations between Tucson and Oracle. 



108. Salpinctes obsoletus (Say). Rock Wren. 



Tolerably common in rocky situations within the oak belt. A 

 pair observed on top of a spur of Mt. Lemon, 8000 feet high. 



109. Catherpes mexicanus punctulatus Ridgw. Dotted Cafion AVren. 



The first of these enchanting songsters was heard among the rocks 

 of a hill near Tucson, around which flowed the waters of the Santa 

 Clara. They were rare in this locality. I next discovered them in 

 the boulder-covered foot-hills about Oracle and found them breed- 

 ing in the Santa Catalinas, one pair having located in a pile of 

 rocks several hundred feet above our camp. 



110. Thryotliorus bewickii bairdi (Salv. & Goilm.). Baird's AVren. 

 Throughout the oak belt and for some distance in the pines this 



species was very common. I did not find any at a lower elevation.
