Migrant, usually somewhat rare. Arrives late in May and passes south late in September. They arrive May 17th to 20th and leave by 26th. They frequent the borders of woods and thickets and bru"h patches along fence rows. Somewhat common in Franklin County May 24 and 25, 1882. Rather common migrant in the vicinity of Chicago (Nelson). Quite common at English Lake May 4, 1891 (Deane). Subgenus Geothlypis Oabanis. 372. Geothlypis Philadelphia ( Wih.). Mourning Warbler. Rare migrant generally; occasionally common locally. Mr. Ridgway notes "became suddenly very common May 6, 1881 (Bull. Nutt. Orn. Club, 1882, p. 20). May be common resident in some localities. Mr. H. K. Coale writes me that Mr. Geo. F. Clingman shot a specimen in Lake County June 1, 1879. This specimen was identified by Prof. R. B. Sharpe as Geothlijpis mucgitivrayi (Aud.) (Cat. Birds Brit. Mu*., Vol. X, p. 365). Mr. Coale says this was undoubtedly a O. Philadelphia, and writes that Mr. Ridgway is of the same opinion. In southeastern Indiana it seems especially rare, only one specimen having been taken in the Whitewater Valley. "273. Geothlypis trichas {Linn.). MiRVLAxo Head of Maryland Yellow-throat, nat. size.
