HYLOCICHLA FUSCESCENS SALICICOLA Ridgway. 

 WILLOW THRUSH, 



Similar to H.f. fuscescens, but coloration duller, the brown of upper 

 parts less tawny (varying from deep Isabella color to nearly broccoli 

 brown), and brown streaks on upper chest and sides of lower throat 

 averaging slightly darker. 



« These localities may possibly be represented by H. f. salicicola. 

 ^ I have cited this reference also under H. guttata pallasii for the reason that it is 

 impossible to determine from Dr. Brewer's article which species is intended.
