DESCRIPTION OF A NEW HYLOCICHLA. 



BY HARRY C. OBERHOLSER. 



True Hylocichla ustulata appears to be divisible into two fairly 

 well defined geographical races, one of which is without a name. 

 The type of Hylocichla ustulata came from the Columbia River, 

 and examination shows it to belong to the form characteristic of 

 the Northwest Coast region. The bird inhabiting interior and 

 southern California may therefore be called 



Hylocichla ustulata cedica, subsp. now 



Chars, subsp. — Hylocichla If. u. ustulalae similis, sect hypoc&ondrtis 

 *t partibus superior ibus pallidioribus ac minus rufescetitibus.
