. Review of American birds in the Museum of the Smithsonian Instution. [microform]. Birds; Oiseaux. SETOPHAQA. 267 1858, 298, pi. Izxvii, fig. 2. —Sclater & Saltin, Ibis, I S59, 12 (Guatemala). Muscicupa leucomug, Oiradd, Birds Texaa, 1841, pi. vi, fig. 1.—Sclater, P. Z. S. 1866, 6tf. Bab. All Mexico and Guatemala. General color, including sides of bodj, lustrous black. Eyelids, a large patcl on the wing, involving tho greater and middle coverts, the edges of the secondaries, the inside of wings, axillars, crissum, tibim, outer tail feather except at base, and a diminishing space on the second and third, white. Middle of breast and abdomen carmine red. Wiugs and tail equal. The white of the crissal feathers is conflned to the tips, the rest being black, sometimes showing in the white. The fourth tail feather sometimes has a Blight white tip ; the second feather is almost entirely white. I have seen no specimen marked as the female of this beautiful species, Lut that sex probably differs only in s less intenne coloration, and more re- etrioted amount of white. There is no appreciable difference between Mexican and Guatemalan skins. Length (34,020), ; wing, ; tail, ; tarsus, .66 This species differs in form from S. miniata in longer wings and shorter tail—the two being about equal, instead of the tail being considerably the longer. The tarsi of this species are also shorter. Setophaga multicolor, Bon.,' from Mexico, seems to differ in having the forehead white, the white of the wings narrower, that of the tail more restricted, the belly white. The species appears to be entirely unknown, except from Bonaparte's description. Smlth- Collec- Sex toDian tor's and .No, No. Age. 4,014 Ui cT 84,020 113 rf 13,628 . , 30,-OJ 340 Locality.
