 ous during its migrations, many breed throughout New 

 England.

Dendroeca striata Baird. — Black-poll Warbler. Abun- 

 dant spring and autumn migrant ; some breeding in more 

 northern sections. (Umbagog Lakes, Ferr., p. 12; Calais, 

 Me., Boardm., p. 125.) A species whose northern range 

 extends far into arctic America, and the one which passes 

 almost latest of all through the United States on its way 

 north in spring.

Dendroeca oestiva Baird. — Golden Warbler. Summer 

 Yellow-bird. Abundant summer resident everywhere. A 

 certain Sylvia trochilus Lath., the "yellow" or "willow" 

 wren, which is given by some writers (^Peab., p. 312, 

 Linsl. , p. 257) , can hardly be else than the autumnal or im- 

 mature plumage of this species ; which has also furnished 

 the basis for the Sylvia Ghildrenii, and perhaps, too, the 

 S. Rathoonim of Audubon's works. The ^^ Sylvia flava 

 Lath.," of Linsley, p. 258, cannot be identified. It may 

 be either the Summer Warbler, or D. pahnarum.

Dendroeca maculosa Baird. — Black and Yellow Warbler. 



Chiefly spring and autumn migrant ; common. But it

North America.
