29. MyIARCHUS OBERI OBERI Lawrence. 
Pipiri Gros-Tete. 
One immature male from Ste. Rose, July 11th. 
The single specimen secured was one of the two birds of the species 
I saw on the island. The pair was observed in an area of deciduous 
scrub about four miles south of Ste. Rose. My guide, one of the best 
chasseurs of that village, said he had never seen the bird before on 
the island. The species was doubtfully recorded from Guadeloupe, 
and Ridgway (Bull. 50, U. S. N. M., 1907, pt. 4, p. 618) questions 
Guadeloupe as a locality for it. 
30. BLacIcUS BRUNNEICAPILLUS Lawrence. 
Gobe-Mouche Brun. 
One adult male from the Soufriére June 29th and eight adults and 
half-grown specimens from Ste. Rose July 12th—16th. 
I found the Brown Flycatcher not rare in Guadeloupe, but rather 
locally confined to the clearings in the deep woods. It seems to prefer 
the solitude of the forest, for it only comes into the open when hawking 
flies. 
31. ELAINEA FLAVOGASTRA MARTINICA (Linné). 
Petit Pintade. Gobe-Mouche huppé. 
Not arare bird in the woody parts of Guadeloupe. Two specimens, 
both sexes from Ste. Claude, July 3d; two birds, one female and one 
unsexed from Ste. Rose July 19th; and five specimens of both sexes 
from the Soufriére June 29th. 
Near the highest part of the island visited, I took my first specimen 
of Petit Pintade. Then in the heavy cover about Ste. Claude, July 4th 
and near Morne Rouge, August 22d I observed several scattered flocks 
of a few individuals. In the lowlands where large berry producing 
trees are absent this species was rare. 
Clark (Proc. Bost. soc. nat. hist., 1905, 32, p. 208) has described 
the song at some length. Only on rare occasions did I hear the bird 
sing in Guadeloupe, and it was then a long clear whistle. In habits
