A vicar. The title 'vicar' is the title of the person who is the priest with spiritual oversight of a parish and is not dependent upon the gender of the priest. Therefore both male and females are called vicars. The level of ordination of a vicar is that of priest. Similarly a female priest is called, still, a priest and not a priestess.
