tario, so far as I have heard. (MclIlwraith.) Mr. John Boyd, of 
Sarnia, has a specimen which he believes was taken at the Humber 
in 1889 but he was never able to trace the bird back to the original 
collector. (J. H. Fleming.) This has been found to be a constant 
and not very rare resident of the vicinity of Pelee point, Lake Erie. 
(W. E. Saunders.) Mr. P. A. Taverner’s paper on the occurrence 
of this species in Michigan should be read in this connection. See 
The Wilson Bulletin, Vol. xviii., p. 17. 
683a. Long-tailed Chat. 
Icteria virens longicauda (LAWR.) COUES. 1872. 
In the bushes which line the banks of the Thompson river, below 
Ashcroft, B.C., I secured two males of this species; another was 
heard singing on a ranch above the town. (Rhoads.) Two taken 
in bushes along the Similkameen river, B.C., near its mouth, June, 
1905. (Spreadborough.) From Kamloops south through the

Wiulsonia mitrata (GMEL.) BONAP. 1838. 
Mr. Norval reports finding this species occasionally, at Port Rowan, 
on the north shore of Lake Erie, and I once found a young male 
near Hamilton, Ont. It was found towards the end of May when 
there had been a big bird-wave the previous night, and this one had 
been apparently carried away in the crowd. (Mcllwraith.) A 
specimen of this warbler, rare in Ontario, was captured at Cataraqui, 
near Kingston, Ont., and is now in the collection of a resident there. 
(Rev. C. J. Young.) Some specimens were taken in the spring by 
Atwater near Rondeau, Ont., about 1884. One was taken in May, 
1906 near Woodstock, Ont., by Mr. J. A. Cole. (W. E. Saunders.)
