Bkicwstkk and Chapman o/i Birds of I lie Suxvanee River. I '2 7 



who luis lived in the lei^ion for over twenty years, told us he had seen 

 none of these birds for eight or nine years. 



Spinus pinus. Pine Siskin. — March 26 Mr. Brewster heard and saw 

 a single individual of this species. Mr. Chapman has heard the species 

 on several occasions at Gainesville, Florida, during previous winters, and 

 these records are supported by his capture there of a male specimen on 

 February 15, 1890. 



This species has been recorded from the State but once before. (C/, 

 Maynard, Birds Eastern North America, p. 92.) 



Helinaia swainsonii. Swainson's Warbler. — Two males were taken 

 in a large, gloomy cypress swamp on March 22. These birds, the only 

 ones observed, were silent. 



Troglodytes hiemalis. Winter Wren. — Two birds of this species 

 were observed and one was secured. This is apparently the most 

 southern point from which it has been recorded in the Atlantic States. 



Regains satrapa. Golden-crowned Kinglet. — One example was 

 taken March 14 and one noted March 21. Mr. Brewster has observed 

 a few individuals of this species at Tallahassee in March, but Mr. Chap- 

 man has not met with it at Gainesville.
