a,b.S'i ad. Mount Elgon, 7000 feet. Iris yellow. 



The two specimens procured by Sir Harry Johnston are 

 slightly larger than the type of A. elgonensis, having their 

 wings 4"9 inches as against 4"65 in the type, which is a 

 female. On re-comparing the whole series of these Ainydri 

 in the Museum I have come to the conclusion that A. elgon- 

 ensis and A. nyasce must be united under the heading of 

 A. walleri. The length of bill, wing, and tail varies con- 

 siderably, and I believe that not much importance can be 

 attached to these characters. 



116. Stilbopsar stuhlmanni.

a. $ ad. Mount Elgon, 7000 feet. 



During my recent visit to Berlin I examined the type of 

 Stilbopsar stuhlmanni, which is certainly the same as Pceoptera 

 greyi Jackson and must stand under the former name.
