COMPREHENSIVE LIST 



PAROQUET. 



Louisiana (Carolina) Paro- 

 quet. 



Long extinct. Even in 

 Audubon's day was fast 

 disappearing, though still 

 quite common in this state. 



CUCKOOS and KINGFISHER. 

 *Yellow-billed Cuckoo. S.R., 

 N.C.S. 



Common to all parts of 

 state. 



*Black-billed Cuckoo. S.R., 

 N.C.S. 



Regarded as common, but 

 of a more limited distribu- 

 tion apparently than the 

 preceding. 



f:|:_*Belted Kingfisher. S.R., N. 

 C.S. 



Of regular distribution 

 throughout the state and 

 remaining at times all win- 

 ter, about open water, even 

 in the northern part of state. 



WOODPECKERS. 



Ivory-billed Woodpecker. 



Probably extinct in Illinois. 

 Audubon seems to have 

 met with it within our lim- 

 its. Ridgway has a dis- 

 tinct recollection of having 

 seen it in his early days, 

 and the present writer feels 

 quite certain of hearing its 

 call note in a swamp near 

 Ullin, Pulaski County, in 

 the fall of 1900. Widmann 

 records it as taken near 

 Morley, Scott County, Mo., 

 Nov. 8, 1895. 



f$Hairy Woodpecker. P.R., 

 N.C. 



And questionable in S. 111. 

 Common where found.
