 Pcecile montanus, Gotjes, Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Phila., 1SGG, 79. 



A common inhabitant of the deep pine woods, where, during the breed- 

 ing season, it is chiefly confined. A very active and persistent insect hunter, 

 exploring- every crack and crevice beneath the rough bark for the hidden 

 larva?, which are instantly dragged forth, and, after being vigorously ham- 

 mered on some horizontal limb and reduced to a shapeless mass, are eagerly 

 swallowed. Its habits are essentially like those of its congeners.
