JIab. Greenland ; whole of North America, and south to Guatemala. 



This species of Regulus appears to lack the small feather which, 

 in satrapa, overlies and conceals the nostrils, which was probably 

 the reason with Cabanis & Blyth for placing it in a different genus. 

 There is no other very apparent difference of form, however, although 

 this furnishes a good character for distinguishing between young 

 specimens of the two species.
