/. Canon of the Provo River (July 10, 1869). 



The following species not found by us elsewhere were abundant 

 among the willows bordering the river : 



1. Turdus fuscescens. 



2. Parus atricapillus septentrionalis. 



There were also found Setophaga ruticilla and G-aleQscoptes Caroli- 

 nensis in plentiful numbers, and Pica melanoleuca Hudsonica, which in 

 other localities in Utah was found to be rare or entirely wanting. 



CATALOGUE OF THE BIRDS ASCERTAINED TO OCCUR IN NEVADA. 



The following is a complete list of the birds known at the present 

 time to occur within the limits of the State of Nevada. The number 

 will doubtless be considerably increased in the course of time, when 

 portions of the state not visited by us shall have been explored. 

 Those marked with an asterisk (*) breed within the limits of the 

 State; those distinguished by a dagger (f) belong to the western 

 portion, and those with a J are more abundant in the eastern part, 

 being stragglers from the Kocky Mountains.
