140. Cisticola strangei (Fras.) 

 S ad. Galabi in Uganda, Kasesi in Torn, March and April 1899. " Iris ochre." 



147. Cisticola erythrogenys Riipp. 

 Nairobe, January 1899. " Iris reddish brown." 



148. Cisticola hindei Sharpe. 



A series from Nairobe, shot in the last days of January and the first days of 

 February 1899, are much lighter and paler, and the rump and npper tail-coverts 

 are more heavily patched with black, than in C. cisticola. They agree fully with 

 the types of C. hindei. This form is evidently a light form of C. cisticola. The 

 plate of €. hindei in the Ibis for 1898 does not give an idea of its pale colouration. 



149. Erythropygia hai'tlaubi Rchw. 



Fort Gerry and Nakabimba in Torn, April 1899. " Iris dark brown; feet slate- 

 grey." The nestling is above deep brown, spotted with pale rufous brown, each 

 feather being pale rufous brown, widely edged with blackish brown. 



159. Euprinodes (? an potius Apalis) flavocincta Sharpe. 

 ? ad. Nairobe, 5. 2. 1899. 



lul. Camaroptera griseoviridis (v. Miill.) 



$ ad. River Lubilia (one day's march westward from Lake Albert Edward), 

 Ussongora 30. 4. 1899. " Iris of the colour of old gold; feet 'yellowish-brown ; bill 

 dark grey." 



152. Crateropus kirki Sharpe. 



SS ad. Karimia (Ussongora), 1.5. 1899. "Iris orange-yellow, shading into 

 lemon-yellow towards inner edge ; feet steel-grey ; bill black." 



153. Crateropus sharpei Rchw. 



? ad. Kitagwetoa in Torn, 6. 4. 1890. "Iris: inner circle whitish-yellow, 

 shading into whitish-grey towards the outer circle ; feet dark grey with a faint 

 purple tinge ; bill black." 



154. Zosterops stuhlmanni Rchw. 



? ?. Kikanja in Torn, 3. 4. 1899. "Iris pale ochre." These two specimens 

 have been compared by Professor Reichenow with the type of the species. 



155. Nectarinia kilimensis Shelley. 



Kampala in Uganda ; Butiti, Lubona, and Kahangi in Torn, March and 

 April 1899. " Iris dark brown ; bill and feet black." 2^. filiola Hartl. is the 

 same. The supposed more reddish sheen of one of these supposed forms is quite 

 variable. Specimens of N. hilimensis m the British Museum and some named 

 for me by Reichenow, do not differ from the typical series of X. filiola collected 

 by Emin Pasha.
