 warm buff* instead of light buff, color of the sides of head, flanks, under

December specimens from Jamaica somewhat approach the Porto 

 Rican bird in the intensity of the buff, but may be readily distinguished 

 by the general grayish tone of the upper tail-coverts, which are distinctly 

 buffy in specimens from Porto Rico. 



The Santo Domingo bird is different from either, the prevailing ground 

 color of the upper parts is blackish and the buff is paler, particularly 

 above, than even the Jamaican bird.
