Dendroica, GRAY, Genera, Appendix, 1842, 8. (Type Sylvia coronata,

The genus Dendroica is represented by a very large number of 
species, which vary somewhat in external form, but passing so in- 
sensibly from one into the other as to render it exceedingly difficult 
to subdivide them. They may, perhaps, be most conveniently 
grouped by their colors, as has been done in “ Birds of North Ame- 
rica,” to which I would refer, as also for general remarks. Nearly 
all the species belong to the United States, going southward in 
winter ; several are peculiar to Cuba, Jamaica, or Porto Rico, one to 
the West Indies generally, and three to Central and South America.
