Mm. C. B. Cory has described the Thrush from Montserrat as distinct from the allied species of 
the neighbouring West Indian Islands. 
He remarks as follows :—“ The Montserrat bird is intermediate in colour between 
Cichlherminia dominicensis and С. herminieri. Тһе feathers on the throat are edged with rufous- 
brown, not pale brown as in C. herminieri. The back is reddish brown, not pale olive as in 
C. herminieri or dark brown as in C. dominicensis. Тһе white arrow-shaped markings on the under- 
parts are larger and more regular." 
The following is the description given by Mr. Cory (J. с.) :—“ Upper parts, wings, and tail dark 
rufous-brown; throat reddish brown, the middle of the feathers marked unevenly with brownish 
white, edged with reddish brown. The feathers of the underparts are white, edged with brown, 
showing large, white, arrow-shaped markings on the lower breast and belly; the feathers of the 
under wings white, edged with brown; under surface of inner primaries showing pale rufous-brown 
on the inner webs. Length 9:5 inches, wing 5:5, tail 8:75, tarsus 1:5, bill 0:95.” 
I have not seen a specimen of this Thrush, and have therefore not been able to figure it in 
the present work. (Б. B. 5.)
