St. Lucia Warbler

Setophaga delicata (Ridgway, 1883)

Parulidae — New World Warblers

St. Lucia Warbler, Setophaga delicata, is a passerine of the family Parulidae and is confined to Saint Lucia in North America. It is a resident bird of the island, where it occupies most habitats except the driest scrub forest. It uses a wide spread of woodland types, including deciduous, semi-deciduous and humid evergreen forest, and is also associated with mid- to high-elevation forest. The species was first described by Ridgway in 1883 and is the only member of its kind. It is also known from three twentieth-century records on Martinique.
