General color, including sides of body, lustrous black. Eyelids, a large 
patch on the wing, involving the greater and middle coverts, the edges of the 
secondaries, the inside of wings, axillars, crissum, tibix,.outer tail feather 
except at base, and a diminishing space on the second and third, white. 
Middle of breast and abdomen carmine red. Wings and tail equal. 
The white of the crissal feathers is confined to the tips, the rest being black, 
sometimes showing in the white. The fourth tail feather sometimes has a 
slight white tip ; the second feather is almost entirely white. 
I have seen no specimen marked as the female of this beautiful species, 
but that sex probably differs only in a less intense coloration, and more re- 
stricted amount of white. There is no appreciable difference between Mexican 
and Guatemalan skins. 
Length (34,020), 5.00; wing, 2.70; tail, 2.70; tarsus, .65 
This species differs in form from S. miniata in longer wings and 
shorter tail—the two being about equal, instead of the tail being 
considerably the longer. The tarsi of this species are also shorter. 
Setophaga multicolor, Bon.," from Mexico, seems to differ in having 
the forehead white, the white of the wings narrower, that of the tail 
more restricted, the belly white. The species appears to be entirely 
unknown, except from Bonaparte’s description.

Rictal bristles very long, reaching to the end of the bill; the toes more 
as in ruticilla, though longer, the middle toe without claw about three-fifths 
the tarsus. The wings are shorter than the broad, soft, rounded tail, and the 
wing is much rounded ; the 4th quill longest, the 1st about equal to the 7th.
