In the southern part of the State it frtijuents the valleys of streams, wliere, among the sycamorfs, cottonwoods and elms, its peculiar song is heard. In au- tumn they extend their range to some extent locally, and are often found about the orchards and lawns. I have never known them to frecjuent the uplands. They are more common in the lower Whitewater Valley than any other species frequenting such localities, yet I do not know that it has been taken as far north as Richmond. May 19 and 20, 1887, I found them very common along Sugar Creek, in Parke and Montgomery counticB. Mr. Stoekbridge notes it as rare in Allen County, and Mrs. Hine has seen but one, and that in September or Octo- ber, in Dekalb County. Neither Mr. Deane nor Mr. Coale ha< been snccessful in finding it in the Kankakee Valley or in Lake County. They breed commonly. Usually they arrive in the vicinity of Brookville April !2 to 18, but in 1882 one was eeen as early as April 3. They begin mating by April 22, and a specimen taken May 19, 1882, contained an egg ready to be layed. They pass southward late in September or early in October. They are said to be rather common in summer in the vicinity of Detroit, BInck-tliroatcd Green siz9. 263. Dendroica virens t'imcl.]. Black-tiiroatei) (ireen Warbler. Very common migrant.
