No. 460.] BIRDS OF THE ISLE OF .PINES. 213 
Jucaro, and Callebonita in April and May. These are similar to 
Cuban specimens, although they average more yellow on the 
thighs. Some Cuban skins, however, have the thighs nearly as 
yellow as Isle of Pines birds. 
114. Dolichonyx oryzivorus (Linn.). — A casual migrant to 
the Isle of Pines, recorded by Cory and by Gundlach, but not 
observed on either trip. 
115. Spindalis pretrei pinus subsp. nov. 
* CABRERO.” 
Type from Santa Fé, Isle of Pines, adult male, no. 13,317, 
Coll. of E. A. and O. Bangs. Collected April 18, 1904, by 
W. R. Zappey. : 
Characters. — Similar to true Spindalis pretrei (Lesson) of 
Cuba, but considerably larger with a larger bill. There is also 
a slight average difference in color, the male of the new species 
being rather paler and more purely yellow, less rufous-orange 
and tawny-orange, on nuchal collar, lower rump, and chest, than 
in Cuban examples; and the black cap extends rather farther 
backward, encroaching more upon the yellow of the nape band. 
The female appears not to differ in color, though our specimens 
are slightly paler and grayer than Cuban ones, but they were all 
taken in spring and early summer, whereas the Cuban examples 
we have compared them with were shot in December. The dif- 
ference therefore is probably seasonal.
