AbstractNew specimens from Sinaloa, Mexico, as well as two older specimens, show that both adult and recently fledged Lucy's Warblers (Vermivora luciae) often move far south of their breeding grounds to molt in the tropical deciduous forests of northwestern Mexico. Remarkably, the first preformative (= first prebasic) molt is complete in Lucy's Warblers, including the replacement of flight feathers, primary coverts, and rectrices; thus, previous aging criteria based on the wear and appearance of these feathers are invalid. We suggest that the recent conclusion that Lucy's Warblers molt on their breeding grounds (Voelker and McFarland 2002) is an artifact of more collecting in the southwestern United States than in western Mexico during late summer. An index of relative collecting in Mexico and the United States, as well as data from constant-effort mist netting, suggest that most Lucy's Warblers move south to molt.Tasas versus Conteos: Mudas de Otoño de Vermivora luciae

Two new species of Indigofera from central Mexico are described and illustrated. Indigofera sousae, from northwestern Michoacán, is related to I. constricta known in the Mexican states of Sinaloa to Guerrero. Indigofera uniseminalis, from northeastern Guanajuato, is similar to I. sphaerocarpa, reported from southwestern United States and northwestern Mexico, and to I. jaliscensis, of the Sierra Madre Occidental and the Transmexican Volcanic Belt.
