not appear in 1882. Several were seen in a large warbler-flock 
May 7, 1883. I shot two males. According to Cooke this Vireo 
breeds in Jefferson county. In migration time in 1883 he saw 
it from May 10 to 19. 
Vireo noveboracensis (G-mel.) belongs to the Carolinian fauna, 
but also appears in the Alleghanian. It is said to be com¬ 
mon in Wisconsin (Brewer), but was not met with by King. 
From Jefferson county Cooke writes: “ Certainly occurs, but 
not identified.”

T. 47. In 1882 two males May 1. Afterwards daily, but mostly 
singly in flocks of warblers. From May 4 also in company with 
titmice, kinglets and woodpeckers. First female May 10, when 
the birds were most numerous. Migration ended the 27th. In 
1883, May 6, six in a flock of Dendroica coronata. Next day 
several in all warblers-flocks. In one very large flock this species 
was nearly as numerous as Dendroica coronata. After May 7 
scattered about, but mostly singly. Fewest 9th-13th. Many 
in a few flocks May 14 and 19. Migration ended 26th. Not 
a few may breed in damp woods and in the edge of East Swamp. 
I saw females several times in breeding season, but without 
being able to find any nest.

warblers near Shioc River in the evening of May 4, 1882. L. 135.

bird is not mentioned at all by King. Cooke does not think it 
is found in Jefferson Co. It will probably be found that it 
breeds in several places in Wisconsin, at any rate near the Mis¬ 
sissippi. I have found it breeding in large numbers as far 
north as Sabula (Jackson Co., Iowa) near that river (about 30
