Dendroeca capitalis is described as a new species from Barbadoes, only 
needing comparison with D. petechia and B. rujicapilla (?) (Zool. Rec. ii.

mula, the second, third, and fourth quills being equal and longest, the first 
being intermediate between the fourth and fifth ; it also seems to have more 
yellow in the tail. G. N. Lawrence, Proc. Ac. N. S. Philad. 1808 (not pub-
