The Kijabe specimens were taken within a few miles of the type 

 locality of this subspecies. The pair from Lake Elmenteita agree 

 with those from Kijabe in size, but are browner, the back being 

 nearly vandyke brown. The Kijabe birds are all sepia on the inter- 

 scapulum. Neglecting a badly abraded specimen from Kijabe, the 

 wing measurements of this series are between 74 and 78 mm.
