 Status 



KEY TO TABLE OF DISTRIBUTION AND OCCURRENCE. 



A abundant. 



a common or very common. 



F frequent, rather common, not uncommon. 



f infrequent, not common, rather rare, uncommon. 



Column I I - rare. 



Number 1 = very rare or casual. 



X accidental, out of normal range. 



i irregular, from year to year common, rare or 



absent, 

 (blank), .no record. 

 Id doubtful, records scanty or incomplete. 



R Permanent Resident. (May be partially migratory. 



increasing in number during the spring or fall 

 or both; or within the limits of a single state 

 wiflidrawing largely to the north in summer 

 and to the south in winter in search of special 

 breeding and feeding areas.) 



R Permanent Resident most abundant in winter. 



r Winter Resident. 



P Winter Resident with a few in summer. 



s Summer Resident. 



S Summer Resident with a few in winter. 



V Winter Visitant. 



W Winter Visitant with a few in summer. 



V Summer Visitant. 



T Regular Transient, a spring and fall migrant. 



t Regular Transient, most abundant in fall. 



1 Regular Transient most abundant in spring. 



I Regular Fall Transient, not recorded in Spring. 



I Regular Transient with some wintering locally. 



n Regular Transient with some summering, or 



breeding locally. 



Ill Regular Tran-ient with a few winter and summer. 



IV Regular Transient frecjuent or common in winter, 



infrequent or rare in summer. 



X Regular Transient frequent or common in sum- 

 mer, rare in winter. 



d „ .doubtful, may occur or probably occurs. 



? no record within recent years, (usually indicates 



species formerly common). 



D an introduced species. 



g general throughout area cited. 



L not general, confined mostly or entirely to par- 

 ticular regions within area cited. 



1 general, but restricted to particular breeding 



environments. (r. g. swamps dry pasture, 

 second growth, etc..) or, general, but for no 

 apparent reason absent from many localities 

 throughout area cited, hence local. 



\ c found on the coast. 



C found largely on the coast, a few inland. 



3 found largely inland, a few on the coast. 



n inland. 



m confined mostly to mountains (High altitudes 



are equivalent to northern latitudes). 



? distribution doubtful. 



i irregular, or erratic, likely to occur at any point. 



(Usually applies to species going in flocks). 

 Figures in any column indicate number of recorded instances of 

 rare species. 



Symbols are occasionally placed without reference to the column-title in
