59 



of Audubon's warblers, as they passed rapidly from tree to tree, but my 

 attention being diverted for a moment I lost sight of it, nor was it again 

 seen. Not hitherto detected west of the plains. "Apparently common 

 at Leaveuworth, Kansas" (Allen). 



15. Denilroica striata, (Forst.) Black-poll Warbler. 



Both sexes abundant May 17. This is, 1 believe, the most western 

 locality at which the species has been recorded. 



16. Seinrus noveboracensis, (Gm.) Small-billed Water-Thrush. 



One specimen secured May 12. Afterward observed in small num- 

 bers, frequenting the margins of pools and streams as at the East. 



17. Geotlilypls triclias, (L.) Maryland Yellowthroat. 

 Apparently not common. A female shot May 7. 



18. Geotlilypis macgillivrayi, (Aud.) Macgillivray's Warbler. 



A single male taken May 14. Both sexes common a few days later. 

 Brush-heaps form a favorite hunting-ground for this species. 



19. Myiodioctes pusillus, ( Wils.) Green Black-capped Flycatcher. 



Seen May 14. Common among the shrubbery and trees that skirt the 

 small streams and ponds.
