During August, 1910, a study was made of the biological conditions of a piece of prairie and a piece of woodland near Charleston, Coles County, Illinois, by Mr. Charles C. Adams, of the Universityof Illinois, who studied the invertebrates ; by Mr. E. N. Transeau, of the Eastern Illinois State Normal School, at Charleston, who studied the plants ; and by the writer, who gave particular attentionto the vertebrate life. Embodied in this paper are the notes taken at this time on the vertebrates, together with other notes on vertebrates taken during occasional visits to the places since then.
