MICROLIGEA MONTANA Chapman 



Chapman's Ground Warbler 



Microligea tnontana Chapman, Bull. Amer. Mus. Nat. Hist., vol. 37, May 14, 

 1917, p. 330 (Loma Tina, Provincia de Azua, Dominican Republic). 



In the rain forests of the Pic de Mac ay a this warbler was fairly 

 common from April 14 to 20, and a series of six was taken. The birds 

 were most numerous from 1,300 to 1,800 meters, and were found 

 usually in pairs feeding through the branches of low trees. 



GEOTHLYPIS TRICHAS BRACHIDACTYLA (Swainson) 



Northern Yellowthroat 



Trichas brachidacfylus Swainson, Animals in menageries, 1838, p. 295 (northern 

 provinces of United States). 



At Terrier Rouge, Haiti, on March 28, we saw a number of yellow- 

 throats and collected two which belong to the present race. They 

 were found again in the La Hotte region, but as none were collected 

 allocation of records under the present race is on basis of probability. 

 On April 7, between GefFrard and Deron, they were very common 

 wherever there were openings in the forest, being found especially on 

 the cultivated slopes above Les Glaces. On April 8 a few were seen at 

 Deron, on April 9 we found them on the ridge of Bois Pin Lacadonis, 

 on April 10 and 24 at Bois Lacombe, and on April 12 at La Cour 

 Z'Anglais. On the Pic de Macaya they were found in numbers from 

 April 13 to 21 in weed patches in the plantations below the rain forests, 

 as well as over the summit of the peak in the great expanses of bracken 

 that grew beneath the pines. On lie a Vache several were recorded on 

 April 28 and 29. 



SETOPHAGA RUTICILLA (Linnaeus) 



Redstart 



Moiacilla ruticilla Linnaeus, Syst. Nat., ed. 10, vol. 1, 1758, p. 186 (Virginia).
