APPENDIX. 



I here append the following list of additional species, which occur 

 or have occurred within the limits of New England. As will be 

 perceived, the greater number can be regarded only as occasional 

 or accidental visitors ; and, indeed, some of the species are deemed 

 by ornithologists as of doubtful existence, — as, for instance, Small- 

 headed Flycatcher, Wood Wren, &c.
