is a common summer resident on the 

 banks of the Lower Hudson River and 

 has been recorded from Fort Lee and 

 Riverdale [Bicknell\ Englewood [Chap- 

 man), and Sing Sing (Fisher\ beyond 

 which point it is as yet unknown. In 

 Connecticut there are but three records, 

 viz., at Suffield where a male was taken 

 Fig. 31. Kentucky Warbler. August 16, 1876 (Merriam\ at Green- 

 wich, where a pair and a fledgeling were seen and the male taken 

 July 10, 1892 [Vorhees, Auk, X, 1893, p. 86), and at West Stratford, 

 where a male was shot May 30, 1888 [Lucas, Orn. and Ool., XIV, 

 1889, p. 62). On Long Island it is very rare, there being but one 

 recent record of its occurrence [Dutc/ier). 



314. Geothlypis agilis (Wits.). Connecticut Warbler. 

 (678.) — Eastern North America, nesting, as far as known, in Mani- 

 toba and wintering in northern South America. This species is an 

 exceedingly rare spring migrant east of the Alleghanies, and I 

 know of no record of its occurrence here at that season ; in the 

 fall, however, it is not uncommon, and sometimes is abundant, 

 arriving as early as September 3 and remaining until the latter 

 part of the month. 



315. Geothlypis Philadelphia (/rv/jr.). Mourning W'arbler. 

 (679.) — Eastern North America, breeding from eastern Nebraska, 

 northern New York and Nova Scotia northward, and southward 

 along the Alleghanies to Pennsylvania. This species is one of our 

 rarest W'arblers ; it passes northward during the latter half of May. 



*3l6. Geothlypis trichas [Linn.). Maryland Yellow- 

 throat. (681.) — Eastern North America, west to the Plains, 

 breeding from the Gulf States to Manitoba and Labrador, and 

 wintering from the Gulf States southward. This is one of our 

 most abundant summer residents. It arrives about May 5 and 

 remains until October. (See Group, Gallery, between Cases N 

 and O.J 



-317. Icteria virens 1 Linn.). Yellow-breasted Chat. (683.) 

 — Eastern L'nited States, breeding as far north as southern Minne- 

 sota and Massachusetts, and wintering in Central America. The 

 Chat is here a common summer resident, arriving about May 5. 

 and remaining until September.
