outer tail-feathers broadly marked with white ; wings, dark brown, 

 with white edgings to the coverts and secondaries; lesser wing 

 coverts, chestnut; bill and feet, bluish black. 



I unfortunately do not possess a female example of this species ; 

 but it somewhat resembles the female 6". portoricensis, being a dull 

 gray-colored bird, showing olive on the back and a yellowish cast 

 on the rump ; the underparts grayish, whitening at the vent. 



Length 6.40; wing 3.35; tail 3.10; tarsus .75; bill .40. 



The present species is very rare, and comparatively nothing is 

 known regarding it. Salle states that it is rare, and frequenting 

 the high trees of the valleys among the mountains in the interior of 

 the island. He states that it has an agreeable song. The speci- 

 mens which I possess are as follows : —
