 The writer desires to acknowledge his indebteduess to Messrs A. R. Grote 

 and W. H. Edwards, for many favors in the determination of species. The 

 new species of moths in this list have already been described by Mr. Grote^ 

 in the "Canadian Entomologist." 



ORNITHOLOGY OF RILEY COUNTY, KANSAS. 



BY DR. C. P. BLACHLY, MANHATTAN. 



I have in the following lists put down only those that I know to be here, 

 receiving valuable aid from my friend. Prof. E. A. Popenoe, in the way of 

 identifying birds; also from Prof. F. H. Snow. Many of my specimens have 

 been brought in by my farmer friends, and some of the hunters of Manhattan, 

 so that I have not had the opportunity I desired to study their habits. The 

 lists will be increased as I have opportunity, and it is safe to say that the 

 number of species that will be found will easily exceed two hundred. 



Two species have been taken that are not on Prof. Snow's catalogue, 

 while quite a number of those marked rare have been found. Three new 

 ones (the Great Blue Heron, King Rail and Little Black Rail ) have been 

 found breeding, and two (the Wood Pewee and White Heron) taken under 

 circumstances such as to make it almost certain that they breed.
