Geothlypis agilis. 



CONNKCTICUT WAKBLKH. 



Very little is yet known of the distribution of this species. 

 In the .L O. U. Check- List the habitat is given as "eastern 

 North America, breeding north of the United States." In Neiv 

 England Bird Life it is stated that this bird is a migrant throug'h 

 Connecticut and Massachusetts, where it is rare in the spring, 

 though more abundant in the autumn ; but it has no New Eng- 

 land record beyond these States. So far it has not been observed 

 in any of the Maritime Provinces, nor in Quebec ; and it was un- 

 known in Ontario until Mr. W. E. Saunders took one specimen 

 near London, in September, 1883, and since then he has found 

 them fairly common in the same vicinity and at Point Pelee for a 

 few days in June. Its regular occurrence in Ontario was to have 

 been expected, as Dr. Wheaton had reported it as a regular 

 migrant through Northern Ohio. Mr. Thompson reports it as 

 a fairly common summer resident in Western Manitoba. 



Geothlypis Philadelphia. 



MOUKNIXG WARIJLEK. 



Dr. CoUES found the Mourning Warbler " breeding abund- 

 antly " at Pembina, and Mr. Thompson reports it as common 

 in Manitoba, and in some localities abundant, but east of that 

 Province it is generally reported as of rare or uncommon occur- 

 rence. It is rather rare, usually, in New Brunswick and Nova 

 Scotia, though Mr. Francis B.vin reports it as common on 

 Prince Edward Island. It winters in Central America. 



Geothlypis macgillivrayi. 



M.\CGILLIV11A\"'S AVAK1JI.EK. 



A fairly common summer resident of British Columbia.
