TOWNSEND AND ALLEN: LABRADOR BIRDS. 405 
took six more eggs and shot and stuffed both the male and female 
birds. 
[Vireo olivaceus (Linn.). Rep-byep VirEo.— We have no exact record 
of this bird for Labrador although Verrill found it common at Anticosti. 
Nuttall says it “appears to inhabit every part of the American continent 
from Labrador to... .Jamaica.’’] 
[Vireo philadelphicus (Cass.). PHILADELPHIA VrIREO.— One was obtained 
at Moose Factory in 1860, but there is no record for Labrador.] 
[Vireo noveboracensis (Gmel.). Wuirn-ryEpD VirEo.— The only record 
of this bird for Labrador is that of Audubon (’39, p. 431): “A few were seen 
by me in Labrador.” As this is a bird of the Upper Austral zone, the record 
has been discredited by J. A. Allen (Packard, ’91, p. 415), yet it breeds regu- 
larly as far north as Essex County, Massachusetts, and stragglers have been 
recorded from New Brunswick, Cape Breton, Ontario, and Newfoundland. 
It would perhaps be no more remarkable than the record of the Little Blue 
Heron. It is possible, however, that Audubon confused the Philadelphia Vireo 
with this species.] 
[Mniotilta varia (Linn.). Brack aNp Waite CrEeEpER.— Drexler took 
this bird at Moose Factory and Brewster found it at Anticosti, but we have 
no records for Labrador.] 
Helminthophila rubricapilla (Wils.). 
NASHVILLE WARBLER. 
Very rare summer visitor in the southern part. 
The only record is that of Audubon (’39, p. 461): “‘A few were 
procured by us in Labrador.” Cooke (’04, p. 37) does not record 
this bird northeast of Gaspé Bay. Audubon’s record is unique, but 
can hardly be doubted. 
Helminthophila peregrina (Wils.). 
TENNESSEE WARBLER. 
Not uncommon summer resident in Hudsonian zone. 
Packard states that it was obtained by Drexler at Fort George, 
James Bay, in June and July, 1860. Low says it is ‘‘not rare at Lake 
Mistassini’’ where it arrived between the 1st and 15th of June.
