warblers are in fine plumage. I have already adverted to the interest 

 of their occurrence here.

The female (so marked) of this pretty species only differs from 

 the male in its less bright colouring, and the cervical spot not being 

 so distinct. I have examined the type of Dr. Hartlaub's description, 

 which is in the Museum at Bremen, and can vouch for its identity 

 with this bird. In M. Salle's former collections from the eastern 

 coast we had Parula cmericana. See P. Z. S. 1857, p. 202.

A young bird of this species, before the first moult, is of a uni- 

 form slaty-brown, with the wing-coverts and outer tail-feathers 

 white.
