* 5, Huthlypis lacrymosa (Bp.). 
Common, although by an unfortunate combination of circumstances 
I was able to secure only one specimen. This Warbler is gregarious, 
and spends most of its time on or near the ground in the densest por- 
tions of the forest, curiously resembling, in its feeding habits, Euco- 
metis spodocephala. The only note I ever heard it utter was a kind of 
chirp. 
Fam. VIREONID 4. 
*6. Lanivireo flavifrons (Vieill.). 
Not common. Two specimens. 
Fam. HIRUNDINIDA. 
*7. Tachycineta albilinea (Lawr.). 
Abundant. Generally seen along the shore of the lake, sitting on the 
dead trees overhanging the water, whence it makes short excursions 
after insects in much the manner of Flycatchers. Two specimens. 
Fam. FRINGILLID 2%. 
8. Guiraca czrulea (Linn.). 
Not very common. The single specimen secured was shot from a 
hedge-row in the open country. 
9. Cyanospiza cyanea (Linn.). 
Apparently rare. One specimen. 
*10. Cyanospiza ciris (Linn.). 
Common. Gregarious. The preponderance of females, although not 
so striking as in Sucuyd, is still quite noticeable. Four specimens. 
Fam. ICTERIDA. 
11. Icterus galbula (Linn.). 
Apparently rare. One specimen. 
12. Icterus spurius (Linn.). 
Rare. One specimen. 
18. Quiscalus macrurus Sw. 
Abundant, especially along the shore. Gregarious. Iris yellow (?). 
The long tail of this bird seems to cause it considerable inconvenience 
in a strong wind, and it frequently has to shape its course to accommo- 
date this unruly member. Six specimens. 
Fam. CORVIDZ. 
“14. Calocitta formosa (Sw.). 
Extremely abundant. Probably the most familiar and conspicuous 
bird on the island, where it renders itself quite obnoxious to the natives 
by its incessant depredations among the oranges and mangoes. 
It is one of the most audacious and impudent of all the members of 
its impudent family with which I am acquainted.
