1876. The only other Nebraska record is a specimen taken at Omaha, 
May 4, 1893, by L. Skow. Breeds north of the United States. 
673. *Dendroica discolor (Vieillot)—Prairte WARBLER. 
Like the preceding Aughey recorded this species as abundant in 
eastern Nebraska, but recent observers do not find it so by any 
means. He found young in Dakota county and a nest in Richard-’ 
son county near the Nemaha, and recorded specimens from the for- 
mer locality June 1, 1865, and from Lancaster county Sept. 5 and 20, 
1874, June 2 and 14, 1875, and June 4, 1877. Since then Bruner 
has noted it at West Point and Omaha, and L. Skow at the latter 
locality also. It should be found breeding in small numbers along 
the Missouri river, especially southward. 
674. *Seiurus aurocapillus (Linnaeus) —OVENBIRD. 
A common summerresident; found throughout the state, but more 
especially eastward. Arrives first week in May, breeds in June, 
departs early in September. Omaha, Peru, Beatrice, Lincoln, West 
Point, Neligh, Sioux county. 
675a. *Seiurus noveboracensis notabilis Ridgway—GrRINNELL WATER- 
THRUSH. 
An uncommon migrant over the state, breeding in Sioux county. 
Passes during second and third week in May and early in September: 
Omaha, Lincoln, West Point, Neligh, Sioux county. 
676. *Seiurus motacilla (Vieillot)—-Lovuis1ANA WATER-THRUSH. 
Along the eastern edge of the state; breeding rather commonly 
in suitable localities along the bluffs of the Missouri river at Omaha 
and Peru, and in Richardson county. Occurring as a migrant a little 
farther west, at Lincoln, Beatrice, etc. 
677. *Geothlypis formosa (Wilson)—-Kenrucky WARBLER. 
A common summer resident and breeder in the wooded ravines of 
the bluffs along the Missouri river, rarely as far west as Lincoln. 
Omaha, Peru, Lincoln—breeding. 
679. *Geothlypis philadelphia (Wilson) —MourNnING WARBLER. 
Aughey found this bird in the eastern part of the state, and also 
found young birds being fed by the parents in the southeastern por- 
tion, thus establishing it as a breeder. L.Skowtooktwospecimens at 
Omaha, May, 21, 1893, and Cary found it a not uncommon migrant 
at Neligh, May 16 to 24, 1899. No other records. 
680. Geothlypis tolmiei (Townsend) —MacGILLivray WARBLER. 
Aughey records noting this species in western Nebraska, probably 
along the Republican river, late in August, 1874. Cary noted it in 
Monroe canyon, Sioux county, May 27, 1900, and later during 1901, 
several times. Breeding probable. 
68la. *Geothlypis trichas occidentalis Brewster— WESTERN YELLOWTHROAT. 
In the western part of the state, breeding abundantly in Sioux
