Annotated List of Species 



107 



taking three females at Amherst on May 19, 1884, the record has 

 generally been considered to refer to D. ccBrukscens. We can 

 now, however, cite the following definite record : Cohasset, a 

 femaje (No. 1500), found by Mr. Howe in the Bryant Collection, 

 now deposited in the Museum of Comparative Zoology, taken on 

 [July?] II, 1874; the month is given on the original label, but 

 it is impossible to definitely decipher it. 



293. Dendrceca maculosa (Gmel.). Black-and-yellow 

 Warbler. 



A not uncommon spring and autumn migrant, and a common 

 summer resident in Berkshire County ; it is said to breed at Win- 

 chendon in Worcester County, and presumably at Blandford and 

 Chester in Hampden County.

Note : Dendrosca nuduboni (Towns.). Avdubox's Warbler. 



A single young male taken on November i6, 1876, near Cambridge,- 

 has been recorded as this species, but as we understand, coronata some- 

 times shows a tinge of yellow on the throat, and as this specimen which 

 we have examined shows, no other differences, it having the shorter wings 

 characteristic of coronata, a decided structural difference, we prefer to 

 consider its peculiarity of coloration due to individual variation. The 

 specimen is in Mr. Wm. Brewster's collection (No. 6925). 



294. Dendrceca coronata (Linn.). Yellow-rumped War- 

 bler. 



A very common spring and autumn migrant; it is known to 

 breed in Berkshire County, and probably, at least once, a t 

 Springfield, and in Worcester County at Winchendon, and near 

 Wachusett Mountain ; (Concord ?Maynard). It winters common ly 

 on and near the coast, especially at Cape Cod.
