Such species are 2). striata, D. coerulea, D. black- burnim, and D. maculosa, which I shall consequently include in the main text of the present work, as reaching the confines of the Colorado Fig, 32.—Black-throated Green Warbler, natural size. The North American species of Dendroeca which are not known to come within such limit are the following: — Dendroeca virens.—Black-throated Green W^arbler. Motaoliia virens, 6m.
