 Go m era, Hierro.

Madeira. 

 Obs. I prefer Tsclmsi's name for tlie Madeiran and 

 Canarian form of the Blackcap. Hartert uses S. a. 

 heineken of Jardine, which certainly has priority ; but this 

 name was given to an aberration, and I prefer to retain 

 Jardine's name for the aberrant form, which still exists in 

 the Canaries and Madeira in restricted localities.
