 very faintly, if at all.

DENDRCECA PETECHIA. (Liiui.) 



Tarsus not less than .70 of an inch; outer webs of tail-feathers 

 showing dusky. 



Adult Male. — General appearance of the last species; nape 

 showing olive ; sides streaked ; crown, greenish, and sometimes

This Warbler was not uncommon at Inao^ua and Lone Island 



during May and June; none were seen during the winter. Dr. 



Bryant found it at Inagua, where he says it was quite abundant, 



both among tlie mangroves and in the clumps of trees on the 



savanna.
