Camp Perrin on April 2G ; wliile tho last individual, a male, was noted 

 May 6, on the slopes of Morne a Cabrits. 



Curiously, most of those seen in the La Hotte region were females. 

 On April 20 we recorded the fact that while several females were 

 observed that day, we had not detected a male at any point on Pic de 

 Macaya. 



DENDROICA DOMINICA DOMINICA (Linnaeus) 



Yellow-throated Warbler 



Motacilla dominica Linnaeus, Syst. Nat., ed. 12, vol. 1, 1766, p. 334 (Hispaniola). 



On March 23, in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, a small flock of warblers was 

 observed in the trees about the Hotel Splendide, among them at least 

 one yellow-throated warbler, which was singing, and it is probable 

 that there were others present. One was seen in Port-au-Prince on 

 April 4. Individuals also were seen or heard near Dessalines on March 

 25, and on lie a Vache on April 29. 



DENDROICA PALMARUM PALMARUM (Graelin) 



Palm Warbler 



Motacilla pabnanim Gmelin, Syst. Nat., vol. 1. pt. 2, 1789, p. 951 ("S. Do- 

 minici "■= Republic of Haiti). 



The palm warbler was detected at Trou, Haiti, on March 26, and at 

 Terrier Rouge, where two were seen on March 28. 



DENDROICA DISCOLOR DISCOLOR (VieiUot) 



Northern Prairie Warbler 



Sylvia discolor Vieillot, Hist. Nat. Ois. Amer. Sept., vol. 2, 1807 (1809?), p. 37, 

 pi. 98 (Eastern United States or Greater Antilles). 



In Port-au-Prince, Haiti, March 23 and 24, prairie warblers were 

 fairly common, and their characteristic, ventriloquial song was heard 

 frequently. They were still present there on April 4. 



One was collected at Trou on March 26, and we found them plenti- 

 ful in the mesquite at Terrier Rouge on March 28. At that point 

 they were evidently gathering for migration, and the specimens taken 

 were excessively fat. They were heard singing there also. Part of 

 those examined were undergoing a molt of the feathers of the throat. 



DENDROICA STRIATA (J. R. Forster) 



Black-poll Warbler 



Muscicapa striata J. R. Forster, Phil. Trans., vol. 62, 1772, pp. 406, 428 (Fort 

 Severn, west coast of Hudson Bay). 



The black-poll warbler was detected only on lie a Vache, Haiti, 

 where several were seen and heard singing April 27 and 28 in the wild 

 almonds under which our camp was pitched.
