The Birds of Wyoming. 145> 



should be a summer resident, but none of the recent observers 

 have reported it. The A. O. U. Check List, Sec. Ed., reports 

 it as belonging to Wyoming. Besides this Aiken is the only 

 one to report it from the state. He notes the following : "A 

 fine singer usually found on the hillsides covered with brush." 

 He also states that he took eggs and nests. Further notes on 

 this species are very desirable. 



645. Helminthophila rubricapilla (Wils.). 



Nashville Warbler. 

 Rare summer resident. Bond has taken a single speci- 

 men at Cheyenne and I have taken one specimen on Chugwa- 

 ter creek, May 29, 1898. Mr. Chas Gilmore captured two 

 specimens in the Freezeout hills in 1897, both of which are 

 in the University collection. One of these skins was condi- 

 tionally referred to the Calaveras Warbler by W. W. Cooke 

 (Further Notes on the Birds of Colorado, Bull. 44., State Ag. 

 Col., Colo., March, 1898, p. 168.) 



646. Helminthophila celata (Say.). 



Orange-crowned Warbler. 



Summer resident ; not common. The following records 

 have been collected : Drexel, Fort Bridger ; McCarthy, Green 

 river; Grinnell, Como bluff; Jesurun, Douglas; Bond, Chey- 

 enne. 



646 a. Helminthophila celata lutescens (Ridgw.). 

 Lutescent Warbler. 



The data regarding this variety is insufficient to war- 

 rant an expression as to its occurrence in the state. It is al- 

 together probable that this bird is a common resident of west- 

 ern Wyoming, and that this and the Orange-crown Warbler 

 commingle in central Wyoming. Coues reports two speci- 

 mens taken at Fort Bridger and Little Sandy and one from 

 Green river. Aiken reports seeing them near Sherman on 

 May 2nd, rare on May 14th, but afterward common for a short 

 time.
