THE Black and White Flycatcher has the fore- 

 head, orbits of the eyes, fore-part of the neck, 

 rump, under parts of the body, bastard wing, and 

 stripe on the greater coverts, white : the rest of 

 the plumage, the white tips of the tail-feathers 

 excepted, black. The Gobe-mouche pie de Cay- 

 enne of Buffon appears to be referrible to this 

 species, only differing in having the rump black, 

 and the tail of an uniform colour, without the 

 white tips to the feathers : the female is of an 

 uniform plain grey. Common in Guiana and 

 Cayenne.
