WARBLER. 59 



50— PILEATED WARBLER. 



Sylvia pileata, Inil. Oin. ii. 531. 



Motacilla pileata, Gm. Lin. i. 965. 



Black-headed Warbler, Gen. Syn. iv. 471. Shaw's Zool. x. 569. 



SIZE of the Wheat-Ear ; length six inches. Bill black ; head 

 black, uniting, on each side of the neck, with a deep crescent of the 

 same, which occupies the whole breast; over the eye a white streak ; 

 forehead and chin white ; back and wings russet brown ; rump and 

 belly white ; the two middle tail feathers black, the base of the others 

 white ; the rest of their length black. 



Inhabits the Cape of Good Hope, where it is called Schaap 

 Wagter, under which name I have received it from thence. I have 

 also seen it in Chinese drawings, as well as from India, where it is 

 called Carrowla. 



51 —CREAM-COLOURED WARBLER. 



LENGTH five inches. Plumage in general dusky white, or 

 cream-colour; back, breast, and under parts, more inclined to dusky; 

 rump and tail wholly pale ferruginous; bill and legs black. 



Inhabits India, and called Burra Carrowla : it seems a doubtful 

 bird ; not improbably a White Variety of the last Species, which 

 bears a name somewhat similar.
