 657. Dendroica magnolia (Mis.). Magonlia Warbler. 



Along the Alleghanies from the northern tier 

 as far south as Somerset County, the Magnolia Warbler breeds 

 regularly. Tho apparently limited to the Canadian fauna, 

 it has recently been observed in summer in Berks County, 

 near Reading and may possibly breed there. In the Pocono 

 Plateau and the northern tier of counties especially, this 

 species is an abundant breeding bird, while in Clarion Coun- 

 ty, it is regular but not very common. 



658. Dendroica cerulea (Wils. ). Cerulean Warbler. 



The Cerulean Warbler breeds only in a few of the 

 southwestern counties of the state. Dr. Warren (Birds of 

 Pennsylvania) speaks of this bird as breeding in Clinton 

 and Somerset Counties, but nothing definite seems to have 

 been found to substantiate these records, tho it probably 

 does occur in Somerset. Mr. Prank M. Chapman speaks of its 

 breeding at Williamsport, but this must be regarded as 

 altogether accidental. In western Pennsylvania, Mr. E. C. 

 Todd has found the Cerulean Warbler to be a regular breed- 

 ing bird in the vicinity of Beaver, Beaver County, and it 

 undoubtedly nests in the surrounding counties, while in 

 June, 1910, I observed several of these birds evidently 

 nesting along the Clarion River in Clarion County. Mr. 

 Dickey tells me that it is a very rare breeder at Waynesburg,
