A male heard singing June 26th somewhere in the woods on 
the western side of Mt Watatic was the only individual noted dur- 
ing a stay of nearly a week at Ashby, during which time we explor- 
ed the surrounding region very thoroughly. It is remarkable 
that this species should not be found there, at least as commonly 
as in the eastern part of .Middlesex county. It will be remembered, 
however, that I did not find it at Winchendon in 1888 and the affie 
ity of . the Winchendon fauna with that of Ashby is very close.
