BIRDS OF HAITI AND SAN DOMINGO. 



85 



outer webs, mottled to the tips ; quills, mottled and barred with 

 reddish brown. 



Female lacking the white on the tail. 



Length 11; wing 8; tail 5.50; tarsus .66; bill, .40. 



The present species is probably not uncommon in San 

 Domingo, but on account of its retiring habits is not often seen. 

 Bonaparte describes a species, A. dominiccnsis, from San Domingo, 

 but the two specimens before me do not differ sufficiently to 

 separate them from United States specimens.
