In the foregoing review I had overlooked, by mistake, the following species : 

 Calamocichla chadensis Alex. 



Cahimocichla chackmis, Alex. Bull. Br. Oim. CI. vol. xix. (1907) p. 63 [Lake Chad]. 



This species resembles C. brempennis in every respect, but is at once dis- 

 tinguished by its larger size. From adult (grey) specimens of C. mfescens, to 

 which it is about equal in size, it seems to difler l)y its very pale coloration, but 

 unfortunately the five specimens available for comparison are iu much worn 

 condition. They are all in Captain Boyd Alexander's private collection.
