102 EXPLORATIONS AND SURVEYS WEST OF JOOTH MERIDIAN. 



Apparently a rather rare species in Arizona. I shot two specimens 

 in a willow-thicket, by the side of a stream, in the White Mountains, 

 August 11 ; not met with again. 



26. RelmintJiopliaga celata, (Say.) Orange-crowned Warbler. 



Bather common, keeping generally in the low thickets and brush of 

 the streams. 



Bill and feet brown ; soles yellow. 



27. Dendroica (Estiva, (Gm.) Yellow Warbler. 

 Common. 



28. Dendroica audulonii, (Towns.) Audubon's Warbler. 



This species breeds quite commonly in the mountains of Southern 

 Colorado, and I think it most probable that a few spend the summer in 

 the higher portions of the White Mountains, Arizona, as I met with sev- 

 eral here quite early in August. During the fall-migration, they were 

 tolerably numerous, and were numerous October 17. At this season, they 

 show no decided preference of locality, but are found in about equal 

 numbers in the low scrub of the hill-sides and among the deciduous 

 trees of the streams. They are adroit and successful fly-catchers. 



29. Dendroica gracice, Cs. Arizona Warbler. 



An abundant Warbler in the White Mountains, Arizona, in August 

 where also it doubtless breeds. Numbers were observed accompanying 

 flocks of chickadees, nuthatches, and other warblers. A single adult 

 female, in worn breeding-plumage, was taken at Inscription Kock, 

 July 24. 



Iris black ; bill and feet brown ; soles light-yellow.
