ANNOTATED LIST OF THE BIRDS 233 



New Jersey. Common summer resident. The latest fall date 

 before me is October 7, 1917 at Elizabeth (Urner). 



ENGLEWOOD REGION. Common summer resident, May 

 10, 1900 (Bird-Lore) to September 28, 1885 (Chapman). 



YELLOW-BELLIED FLYCATCHER (Empidonax flaviventris) 

 This Flycatcher is by no means uncommon in the Hudson 

 River Valley, but is rarer on Long Island and in the interior of 

 New Jersey, especially in spring. I have never known it to 

 sing on migration, but the call-note, a musical whistled phee-i, 

 is sometimes heard, and is absolutely diagnostic. The dark 

 olive-green shade above and the uniformly yellowish under- 

 parts make it identifiable under favorable conditions. 



Long Island. Rare transient; May 19 to June 10; August 

 4 to September 27. 



ORIENT. Very rare spring transient, only two certain 

 records, May 23, 1908 and May, 1917 (Mrs. Frank D. Smith). 

 MASTIC. Rare transient. 



LONG BEACH. Very rare; May 25, 1916 (Bicknell); four 

 fall records, September 1, 1919 to September 17, 1914 (Bick- 

 nell). On September 2, 1920 eight or more individuals ob- 

 served (Bicknell). 

 New York State. 



CENTRAL PARK. Uncommon spring transient; regular and 

 often common in fall; May 14, 1921 (Griscom) to June 4, 1917 

 (Hix); August 10, 1922 (Griscom) to September 28, 1909 (Gris- 

 com). Recorded chiefly in the last week of May and the last 

 two weeks of August. Woodruff and Paine's List of 1886 

 credits E. T. Adney with dates from September 19 to October 

 10, 1885. It is almost certain that these refer at least in part 

 to some other species. 



BRONX REGION. Rare transient; May 17, 1890 (Dwight) 

 to June 3, 1890 (Dwight); August 22, 1890 (Dwight) to Sep- 

 tember 10, 1896 (Dwight). 



New Jersey. Generally a rare spring, uncommon but regular 

 fall transient. 



ENGLEWOOD REGION. Rare spring, uncommon fall tran- 

 sient; May 15, 1904 (Bildersee) to May 31, 1886 (Chapman) 

 and June 19, 1910 (Weber, specimen collected); August 19, 

 1888 (Chapman) to September 24, 1904 (Hix and Wiegmann).
