Record of the Work of the Wilson Chapter, 



FOR 1893 AND 1894. 



ON THE riNIOTILTID/E. 



By Lvnds Jones, Chair?77a7i of Comynittee. 



The character of the greater portion of the notes handed me has made 

 a change in the original plan of this report necessary. It seems advisable 

 to make a report upon only such points as are pretty fully covered by 

 every set of notes received, at this time, reserving all other material for 

 another report when a sufficient mass of matter has been accumulated to 

 make it of the most value. 



For the sake of brevity and clearness this report is presented in tabular 

 form as far as practicable. Since it attempts to show only the migrations, 

 relative abundance and breeding range of each species, the conclusions to 

 be drawn are left to the reader, a glance at the table being sufficient to 

 show everything. 



I strongly recommend this work, now scarcely begun, to continue sev- 

 eral years, if necessary.

 nine localities :
