INDEX. 



Notes relating to a species of bird are brought together under its 

 current scientific name and cross references from the common name, 

 and in some cases from certain once familiar scientific names, are 

 inserted. The scientific names of North American birds correspond 

 with those of the Check-list prepared by a committee of the Ameri- 

 can Ornithologists' Union, New York, 1910. Subspecies are not 

 separately mentioned, except when the typical subspecies is extra- 

 limital or only one subspecies has been treated. 



The number of stomachs analyzed is noted in the case of all formal 

 reports, of other original investigations as " Birds of a Maryland 

 Farm " or " Birds of California in Relation to the Fruit Industry," 

 and of those publications including original matter as Farmers' 

 Bulletin 54 and Circular 61. Publications are referred to in the 

 index by the following abbreviations: Bui. Bulletin, Circ. Circu- 

 lar, Ent. Circ. Circular of Division of Entomology, F. Bui. Far- 

 mers' Bulletin, Fauna N. A. Fauna, Kept. Annual Report, and 

 Ybk. Yearbook. The particular bulletin, circular^ farmers' bulletin, 

 or fauna is designated by its number, the report or yearbook by the 

 year for which it was issued. Bold-faced figures indicate the pages 

 containing the principal account. The other pages usually contain 

 short notes or merely incidental mention of the food.
