DENDROICA VIGORSII ACHRUSTERA (Bangs). 

 NASSAU FINE WARBLER. 



Similar to D. v. vigorsil, but wing much shorter, tail relatively longer, 

 nd bill and feet larger; yellow of under parts averaging paler, not 

 stending to flanks or lower abdomen; yellow supraloral line averag- 

 ig broader, more distinct; white on inner webs of lateral rectrices 

 lore restricted. Young (in first plumage) with upper parts much 

 rowner (cinnamon -brown or nearly prouts brown). 



Adult mafe.— Length (skins), llVl30 (123.2); wing, 64-69 (66.9); 

 lil, 54-56 (54.2); exposed culmen, 11.5-12.5 (12); depth of bill at 

 ostrils, J--1.5 (4.1); tarsus, 18.5-19 (18.9); middle toe, 13-13.5 (13.4).' 



Adult female.— l^Qngih (skins), 120-123 (121.5); wing, 62-63 (62.5);

 ostrils, 4; tarsus, 19-19.5 (19.2); middle toe, 13-13.5 (13.2).' 



Island of New Providence, Bahamas. 



This is clearly an insular form of D. vigorsii, differing only in its 

 aorter wing, larger bill and feet, and relatively longer tail. Every 

 baracter of coloration in adult birds I find in occasional specimens of 

 :'ue D. vigorsii, which is exceedingly variable in respect to extent of 

 16 yellow on the under parts, and other color characters.

'Four specimens. 

 '' Two specimens. 



' No particular island is mentioned, but a specimen from the Bryant collection m 

 le U. S. National Museum collection agrees closely with the examples from New 

 rovidence, and la probably from that island.
