BIRDS OF MAINE. 115 



277. (657). Deudroica maculosa (6r»ie/.) . Magnolia Warbler. 

 Known to many as the Black and Yellow Warbler, this species is 



a quite common summer resident of general distribution. While 

 seemingly most abundant within the Canadian fauna, it slightly 

 overlaps into the Alleghanian during the breeding season, though 

 not common therein.
