persons this bird, notwithstanding its numbers, is unknown. I have given some 

 more extended notes on its habits heretofore. (Ornithologist and Oologist, Vol. IX, 

 1884, pp. 27-28.) 



*257. Dendroica pennsylvanica (Linn.). CHESTNUT SIDKD WARBLEB. 



Common migrant; summer resident in extreme northern part of State, Laporte 

 County (Byrkit). Somewhat later in arriving in spring than. some other specie?. 



Head of Chestnut-sided Warbler, nat. size. 



In southern Indiana they arrive May 1 to 5 and pass south in fall from the 

 latter part of August to October 3. Knowledge concerning its summer range in this 

 State is much desired. This is a rather quiet species, frequenting the hill-tops and 

 uplands. "Breeds sparingly in the north of the State." (Bray ton.) 



258. Dendroica castanea ( Wils.). BAY-BREASTED WARBLER. 



Migrant, not generally common. Arrives with last species, and passes south 

 from early September to late October. In habits this and the last preceding species 

 are much alike. 



Head of Black-poll Warblur, nat. size. 



259. Dendroica striata (Font.). BLACK-POLL WARBLER. 



Migrant, usually rather rare but sometimes common. The last of the tree- 

 inhabiting warblers to pass north in spring. Arrives in Southern Indiana April 

 27 to May 1, and generally leaves by Mny 20, although Mr. G. C. Hubbard has 

 found it in Jefferson County as late as May 23. In the fall they arrive from the 

 North about the middle of September and some individuals remain until the mid- 

 dle of October. Mr. J. Grafton Parker notes them as ' very abundant " at Cole- 

 hour September 20, 1884. 



260. Dendroica blackburniae (Gmel.). BLACKBURNIAN WARBLER. 



Common migrant. A very beautiful warbler, arriving some years by April 

 15 and passing northward May 10 to 16. In autumn they may be noted returning 

 late in August, and are to be found well into September.
