In the vicinity of Pliiladelpliia it occurs only during migrations, 

 May 12—16,* and one or two individuals are generally reported 

 every year by one observer or another. 



Along the Blue Mountain and in the northern counties it proba- 

 bly breeds regularly in certain localities, as it has been noted in 

 summer at Delaware Water Gap (Seriill) and at Lake Hopatcong, 

 N. J. (R/wads). 



290, Helminthojyhila rufieapilla (Wils.). Nashville 



Warbler. 



Breeding Range — Northern U. S. to Hudson Bay. 

 Winter Distribution — Eastern Mexico to Guatemala. 



Regular migrant May 6-14 and September 15-October 1. 



It was found in summer once at Englewood, northern New Jersey 

 {^Chapman — Auk, 1889), and was recorded by Baird to have bred 

 formerly on South Mountain, Cumberland county, Pa. {Birds of 

 Carlisle). It will probably be found to breed along the Alleghanies, 

 though it has not yet been detected there in summer so far as we 

 can ascertain. 



291* HehnlntJiopila celata (Say). Orange-crowned 



Warbler. 



Breeding Range — Rocky Mt's. to Alaska. 



Winter Distribution — S. Atlantic and Gulf States to eastern Mexico. 



A very rare straggler during migrations,! one was secured on 

 Rancocas Creek, N. J., February, 1860 (Turnbull), and one in 

 Bucks county, Pa., November 2, 1867, by Mr. C. D. Wood. ( War- 

 reii's Report.) More recently the following s[)eciniens have been shot : 



West Philadelphia, March, about 1876, John Mcllvaine {Trotter— B. N. 0. 

 C, 18T9). 

 Haddonfield, N. J., March 22, 1883, S. N. Rhoads (B. IV. 0. C, 1883). 

 Anglesea, N. J., October 6, 1889, P. Laurent (0. ^ 0., 1892). 



* We have no fall records. 



fBoth these sj)ecies migrate mostly west of the Alleghanies, and are natur- 

 ally of rare occurrence on the Atlantic slope. H. peregrina, however, is much 

 the more common.
