i canuot sec any differences between specimens from the Upper Itnri and the 

 regions of Lakes Albert and Albert Edward and such from Uganda, as the birds 

 from Karevia, Ukondjo, and from west of Lake Albert Edward have absolntely the 

 same gloss as those from Uganda. The differences in the gloss seem to be merel}' 

 individual.

As to the other black-billed forms, T. schiUti schiltti Cab. is distributed from 

 Tala Magongo ou the Cuango, North Angola, to the (lower?) Arnwimi, wheuce 

 there are two specimens lin the British Museum collected by Capt. Guy Barrows. 



T. schiltti tiharpei Kch\v. is known only from the type, which was collected 

 by Bohndorlf at Semnio (Zeraio) on the Bomu or M'Bomoa River, the large 

 northern affluent of the Uelle. 



T. schiitli Jinsrhi Rchw. was discovered by Bohndorff at Ndorunia, which is 

 just on the watershed between the Uerre and Guruba Rivers, running into the 

 Uelle and the Sue River, an affluent of the Bahr el Ghazal. 



The three specimens which Bohndorff collected here are in the Leyden, 

 Bremen, and Basel Museums. 



Captain Boyd Alexander collected two specimens of T. s.jinschi on the Likaiuli 

 (Bomokandi) River, a southern affluent of the Uelle, due south of Ndorniua, which 

 do not absolutely agree with the description of the type, but are in any case 

 intermediate in colour between T. sharpei and T. emini. 



27. Tui'acus livingstonei livingstonei G. R. Gray. 



This form of the long-crested group is distributed over the countries sonth of 

 Lake Nyassa (Zomba, Mlangi, Mlosa, Maujauga Hills, Lower Zambesi), and is said 

 to'occnr south to Zululand. I have, however, not been able to comjiare Zululand 

 s|)ecimens, and believe they might be different. 



The following specimens are in the Tring Museum : 



3 ad. (not sexed), Mlangi Hills, Nyassalaud. Brown coll. 



28. Turacus living-stonei cabanisi (Rchw.). 



The northern form of T. linngstonei is distinguished from true licingstonei 

 always by a more bluish green rump and a bluish wash in the tail. 



Sucli birds have been collected at Bagamojo by Fischer (Berlin ami IStutfgart), 

 at Mpapwa by Baxter (London), in Ugogo by Kirk (Loudon). 



The Tring Museum has one specimen of this form. 



Ad., Ngnrn Hills, iv. 00. 



Side by side with these birds a blue species occurs which has been called 

 by Fischer Turacus reicheiiowi, and all intermediate forms between the green T. I. 

 cai/anisi and 7'. reicltenowi seem to be found in the same region. The puzzle 

 becomes more difficult by the fact that Mr. Claude Grant collected such a blue 

 bird north of Beira, which 1 have compared with and cannot distinguish from two 

 cotypes of reichenowi from Dar-es-Salaam and Maruji (German East Africa). 



While Reicheuow has put down his own Turacus cabaitisi as a synonym to
