to them. The colour of the chest is in all six specimens 

 »ligbt cinnamon drab» according ty Ridgway, »Color Stan- 

 dafds» of 1912. Mearns has, however, described tbe colour 

 of the breast of bis kilimensis as being »påle vinaceous- 

 drab». The colour of the abdomen should in Ch. a. kili- 

 mensis be »påle pinkish cinnamon», but in the present three 

 specimens from Kilimanjaro it is decidedly more similar to 

 »pinkish buff» (Ridgway, 1912), and in the Rutshuru-speci- 

 mens the colour agrees better with »påle pinkish buff», but 

 somewhat dirty. The colour of the man t le of kilimensis is 

 said to be »saccardo's umber», but the colour standard named 

 so by Ridgway 1912 is lighter than the dorsal colour of 

 these birds. In some it is almost »bister», in others it has a 

 somewhat olive brown tint without, however, agreeing com- 

 pletely with either of these. These facts prove a certain vari- 

 ability with regard to the shades of colour even in the same 

 district. A specimen from Cameroon is very similar to the 

 Rutshuru specimens and apparently of the same race.
