UNDATED WARBLER. 



Perhaps a variety of the preceding, from which 

 it differs in being smaller, in having the tail shorter, 

 and the body beneath tinged with red : the sides 

 of the head are not pale, as in the above-men- 

 tioned.

This greatly approaches the Yellow-bellied 

 Warbler, and is even conjectured to be the male 

 of that species by Buffon ; but the cuneiform and 

 elongated tail appear to remove it from that bird: 

 it is found in the same country, Senegal : its 

 length is four inches: its beak is black: the upper 

 parts of its body are black, edged with rufous : 

 the quills and tail are brown, edged with rufous 

 white : rump plain deep rufous : under parts of 

 the body white.
