[N'ote. — In the foregoing synonymy, the different modes of writing cestiva or aestira are not 

 preserved. — All the above quotations are believed to be strictly applicable to the ordinary 

 North American bird, exclusive of its several West Indian conspeciea or varieties — The 

 Motacilla petechia Linn. SN". i. 334, n. 30, is based on Ficedula pensUvanica erythrocephalos 

 Briss. iii. 483, and TelloTV Ked-polo Bdw. pi. 256, f. 2, »nd quoted from "Pennsylvania"; 

 the references, however, and the descriptions of the authors cited, indicate clearly thit it 

 is one of the West Indian red-capped conspecies of D. cestiva — neither JD. cestiva itself, nor 

 B. palmarum, though the name has been used in cunnection with both these species. — The 

 names ruficapilla, albicoUis, aud chloroleuca of Gmelin, all indicate birds like B. cesHva, but 

 are apparently rather referable to some of the West Indian forms. " Bloody .sided " War- 

 bler is one of the epithets of Dendroeca pennsylvanioa or icterocephala, the Cheatnut-sided 

 "Warbler of authora ; but the Bloody-sided "Warbler of Pennant and Latham, based on 

 Ficedula ntartinicana of Bciss. iii. 490, pi. 23, f. 4 (— Mot. ruficapUla of Gmelin), is one of 

 the West Indian Warblers like D. (Estiva.— The /S^i»ia/a»aof Vieillot seems to be unques- 

 tionably D. cestiva. — In addition to the synonyms given, the curious reader, if he be so 

 minded, may look among the older names for a MotacUla or Sylvia trochilus var. 0, a 

 supposed variety of the Willow "Wren or Yellow Wren of Europe, for a long time quoted
