WILSON, PLATE IXVII. r|«. Ir. 
This new species, the onlv one of its sort I have 
met with, was shot on the banks of Cumberland rivf: 
about the beginninjj of April. Whether male or feo^J, , 
I am uncertain. It is one of those birds that usti»''J 
glean among the high branches of the tallest trf^ 
which render it difficult to be procured. It was darti”; 
about with great nimbleness among the leaves, 
appeared to have many of the habits of the llycatcli^^ 
After sereral ineffectual excursions in search of 
of the same kind, with which I might compare ^ 
present, I am obliged to introduce it with this 
account. 
The specimen has been deposited in Mr Pea^*’ 
museum. 
The blue green warbler is four inches and a half 
and seven and a half in extent ; the upper parts 
verditer, tinged with pale green, brightest on the f'^'i 
and forehead; lorc.s, line over the eye, throat, 
vyhole lower parts, very pale cream ; cheeks, slisrl'''^ 1 
tinged with greenish ; hill and legs, brio-ht lio-ht bk‘y . 
except the upper mandible, which is duskv; taiF, 
and, as well as the wings, brownish black ; the forU**^ 
marked on the three exterior vanes with white 
edged with greenish ; the latter having the first 
second row of coverts tipt n ith white. Note, a fe*’" ' 
chirp.
