288 BanGs, Notes on Bahama Birds. tur 
18. Saurothera bahamensis Bryant. BAHAMA Cuckoo. — Ten speci- 
mens, all from Nassau. This series includes adults in fresh plumage 
and in worn mid-summer dress, taken on dates ranging from February 
13 to July 25, besides three young specimens in nestling plumage taken 
June 19, July 2 and July 7. The young differ from the adults only in 
having the throat and breast a little paler in tone, and.in entirely lacking 
the black bars in the tail. 
19. Coccyzus minor maynardi Rz7dgw. MAyYNARD’s Cooxoo. — Nine 
specimens, all from Nassau, including adults taken in June, July and 
August, and one nestling taken June 23, 1897. The nestling plumage 
appears to differ from that of the adult chiefly in the coloring of the tail, 
the four outer rectrices in the young bird not being distinctly black 
basally, but dull dusky brown with the white ends less purely white and 
deeper, 
20. Dryobates maynardi (Ridgw.). MAYNARD’s WOODPECKER. — Ten 
specimens, all from Nassau, adults, taken from February 12 to August 
22, and two nestlings, g and 9, taken respectively June 10, and June 11, 
1897. The nestlings show the character that separates this island form 
from the mainland Hairy Woodpecker — the white lores connecting the 
superciliary stripe with the whitish nasal tufts —quite as strongly as do 
the adults. 
21. Chordeiles minor Cad. Lirrte NIGHTHAWK. —One Q, taken at 
Nassau, May 13, 1897. 
22. Doricha evelyne (Bourc.). BAHAMA Woopstar.— Ten speci- 
mens — eight from Nassau, two from Current Island, Eleuthera. 
23. Pitangus bahamensis Bryant. BAHAMA KINGBIRD.— Two males 
from Nassau, March 2 and June 3, 1897. 
24. Blacicus bahamensis (Bryant). Least BAHAMA FLYCATCHER. — 
Ten specimens, all from Nassau, adults, taken from March 6 to June 19, 
and one nestling taken May 24, 1897. 
25. Myiarchus leucaysiensis Bryant. RUFOUS-TAILED FLYCATCHER. 
— Five specimens, from Nassau, March to to June 24. 
26. Tyrannus dominicensis (Gmel.). GRAY KINGBIRD. — Six speci- 
mens, from Nassau, May and June. 
27. Callichelidon cyaneoviridis (Bryant). BAHAMA SWALLOow.—Eight 
specimens, seven males, from Nassau, all taken on March 8, 1897; one 
2 from Current Island, Eleuthera, April 24, 1897. 
28. Vireo calidris barbatulus (Caé.). BLACK-WHISKERED VIREO. — 
Thirty-one specimens, all from Nassau but one, which was taken on 
Current Island, Eleuthera, April 30, 1897. The Nassau examples were 
taken in May, June and July. 
Mr. J. Lewis Bonhote in reporting on a small collection made by him- 
self on New Providence,! calls his specimens true caldris; to this I can 
not agree.
