APPENDIX. 459 



Pine-creeping Warbler. Dendrosca pinus. 



"This species is rather rare in spring, but plentiful in autumn. 

 Arriving early in April, and again in October. Many remain during 

 summer " (Turnbull). 



This is one of the few species of warblers that lingers in Central 

 New Jersey long after the severe frosts have set in. I have seen 

 them as late as December 3d. 



Yellow Red-poll Warbler. Dend rmca palmarum. 

 Abundant, but do not remain to breed. 



Golden -crowned Thrush. Siurus auricapillus. 

 Yery common in moist ground thick with underbrush. 



Water-Wagtail. Siurus ncevius. 



Not as common as the preceding, but during no summer have 

 I found it rare. 



Water-Thrush. /Siurus motacilla. 



Not uncommon, but probably the least abundant of the three 

 species of this genus. 



Connecticut Warbler. Oporornis agilis. 



" Rather rare. This species is very seldom met with in spring, 

 but is, however, more frequent in autumn, appearing late in Au- 

 gust" (Turnbull). 



During the spring of 1882 and of 1883, I saw many specimens of 

 these birds during the month of May. 



Kentucky Warbler. Oporornis formosus. 



" A southern species, and rather scarce. It arrives late in 

 April " (Turnbull). 



As has frequently happened during the past decade, during cer- 

 tain summers, warblers of all kinds would be phenomenally abun- 

 dant. During such I have seen many of this species. 



Maryland Yellow-Throat. Geothlypis trichas. 



A specimen of this common warbler was seen on the 18th of 

 March, 1883. This is unusually early for this species, which, how- 

 ever, usually anticipates the arrival, in spring, of the warblers gener- 

 ally, by two or three weeks. The specimen here mentioned was 

 very active, kept much to the tops of the taller trees, and sang 

 incessantly.
