island, I do not think it advisable to separate the birds collected 

 at that locality from those collected at Port au Prince, which is also 

 at the west end, but situated at the bottom of a deep bay, instead of 

 at the end of a point. Those birds found at the eastern or Dominican 

 end, are marked with an *, those from the western or Haytian, with 

 at- 



Falco. 



* f Falco dominicensis. I have marked this bird as from the 

 eastern end, though the list of Mr. Salle gives F . sparverius ; there are 

 four specimens in Mr. Younglove's collection, all of which are light in 

 color, resembling more sparverius than dominicensk of Cuba. I am 

 by no means certain, notwithstanding the extreme variation in the 

 color of the Cuban birds, that a more extensive series of specimens 

 will not show that sparverius, dominicensis and sparveroides, all be- 

 long to one species. 



Strix (Athene). 



* Strix dominicensis. 



Tyrannus. 



* f Tyrannus griseus. This, I presume, is the same as T. 

 matutinus of Salle. 



* Tyrannus intrepidus. I am inclined to believe that there 

 was a mistake in the identification of this bird, and that probably 

 the two tyrants found by Mr. Salle', vi^re griseus, and either caudifasci- 

 atus or some other closely allied species, as such a bird is found in 

 Cuba, Jamaica, and the Bahamas. 



Tyranuula (Myiarchus). 



+ Tyrannula stolida. (Var., dominicensis.) Several speci- 

 mens. This variety differs from T. sagrce and T. hahamensis in the 

 distinct yellow of the abdomen, and from T. stolida in the very much 

 broader rufous edging of the external web of the primaries. 



No. 41,825. Length of wing, 83 ;§ of tail, 72^; of tarsi, 21 ; bill 

 alono- culmer, 20. Above brownish-olive ; head deep brown, with the 

 edges of the feathers somewhat rufous, as are also those of the upper 

 tail coverts ; lores grayish, wings and tail dark brown, the tips of the 

 greater and middle coverts whitish-ash, forming two bands, the an- 

 terior most distinct. The margin of the secondaries and tertiaries 

 whitish, very broad and clear on the inner one. Margin of all the 

 primaries bright ferruginous, occupying all the outer web at the base
