DENDROICA AUREOLA Gould. 



Dendroica aureola Gould, Zool. Voy. Beagle, iii. Birds, p. 86, 1841 (Gala- 

 pagos). — TowNSEND, Bull. Mus. Comp. Zobl., xxvii, No. 3, p. 122, 1895 

 (Cocos Island). — Ridgway, Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., xix, p. 493, 1896. — 

 Rothschild and Hartert, Novitates Zoologicae, vi, p. 147, 1899. 



Range. — Cocos Island, Galapagos Islands, west coast of Colombia. 



We have three immature specimens, one male and two female, all 

 taken from Cocos Island, June 30, 1S99. They are indistinguishable 

 from Galapagos specimens of Dendroica aureola in corresponding 

 plumage. Townsend, also, could not separate his specimens from 

 Galapagos specimens. D. aureola is said by Townsend, Ridgway 

 and Rothschild and Hartert to be very closely related to D. petechia 

 of Jamaica.
