223. Ammodramus leconteii Aiul. Lc Conte's Stxinow. 



A winter resident. I liiive found it rather common on 

 Avery's Island during Jiinuary. 



226. Ammodramus caudacutus Giiiel. Hliarp-idilctl SiMdrov. 



Common in tlic salt-nuirshes of the coast. I have found 

 it quite common on the so-called "floating i)rairies" of Lake 

 Poutchartrain . 



227. Ammodramus maritimus AVils. Seaside Spanoir. 



Very common on the coast, especially in the salt-marshes? 

 and on the borders of the lakes. 



238. Chondestes grammacus Say. La rlc Finch. 



Although rather more of a western prairie form, this spe- 

 cies has been found quite common in several parts of the state, 

 and is a fairly regular breeder. It has been obtained in Madi- 

 son and Phujuemine parishes. 



229. Zonotrichia leucophrys Forst. White-crowned Sparrow. 



While this species is a regular winter resident in Louisi- 

 ana, it cannot be regarded as very common . 



230. Zonotrichia albicollis Gniel. M hiie-throatcd Sjiarrow. 



A much more abundant winter resident than the preceding 

 species. 



231. Spizella socialis Wils. Chippiug Sparrow. 

 Eesidcnt in the i)ine- woods; abundant in winter. 



232. Spizella pusilla Wils. Field Sparrow. 



A common winter resident; chiefly in the pine- woods. 



233. Junco hyemalis Liiiu. Juneo; Slate-colored Snow-bird. 



A regular, but not common winter resident. Mr. Otto 

 Wideman reported it to me froiji Mandeville on March 2, 1897. 



234. Peucjea aestivalis bachmanii And. Bach man'' s Sparrow. 



This species, although not uncommon in the pine- woods, 

 seems to select its habitat with more care than any other spe- 

 cies of sparrow that I know of. I have always noticed that in 

 any given locality, of apparently similar characteristics, only 

 one or more parts would be tenanted by Bachmau's Sparrow. 

 It breeds wherever it occurs. 



235. rielospiza fasciata Giuel. Son(j Sparrow. 



A winter resident in the pine-woods, but chiefly a migrant. 

 230. rielospiza georgiana Lath. Swamp Sparrow. 



An abundant winter resident throughout the state, stay- 

 ing late into spring (May 3, 1808).
