Grenada. 



Grenada examples of this species apparently do not differ from 

 specimens from the continent and the island of Tobago. 



Myiarchus oberi Lawr. 



M. oberi is allied to M. eryfhrocerms, but differs from it in being 

 somewhat larger and darker. In a large series these characters, 

 though slight, seems constant. Neither M. oberi nor M. erythro- 

 cercus can be confounded with M. tyranfmhis QAu\\.),iox tyrannnhis, 

 as originally described by Brisson {M. cayenensis Brisson), has 

 the tail dark brown, the feathers not edged with rufous (see 

 p. 126).
