VERTEBRATE ANIMALS OF KENTUCKY. 13 



Kentucky (Aud.). Transient, not uncommon 

 in Nelson County (Beckham). 



82. Orange-crowned Warbier (Helminthophila celata, 



Say). 



Transient, Nelson County (Beckham). 



83. Tennessee Warbier (Helminlhophüa jperegrina, Wil- 



son). 

 Transient. East Cairo in September. Nelson 

 County (Beckham). 



84. Blue-winged Yellow Warbier (Helminthophilapinus, 



Linn.). 



Frequent in thebarrens (Audubon). Common 

 in spring in Nelson County (Beckham). 



85. Golden- winged Warbier (Helminthophila ehr -y 'sop- 



teret, Linn.). 

 Kentucky, several speeimens (Aud.). Rare, 

 Nelson County (Beckham). 



86. Worm-eating Warbier (Helmitherus vermivorus, 



Gmelin). 

 In Kentucky and Ohio I have seen only a few 

 of them ; nor have I ever found their nests in either 

 of these states (Aud.). The species is not rare 

 during the nesting season in southern Illinois not 

 far from the Kentucky border and hence is prob- 

 ably to be found breeding also on the Kentucky 

 side of the Ohio river. 



87. Prothonotary Warbier (Protonolaria citrea, Bod- 



dsert). 



Observed by Audubon along the Ohio below 

 Louisville. Probably not rare in the forests of 

 western Kentucky. A speeimen was observed by 

 me at Midland in the eastern end of the State last 

 April. 



88. Black and White Creeper (Mniotilta varia, Linn.). 



A summer resident in western Kentucky.
