T. albiventris is closely allied to T. albonotatus Sliarpe, 

 but may at once be recognised by having the tail uniformly 

 coloured. 



This adds another species to the already very large 

 number of forms of which Cameroon Mountain is the type 

 locality. 



[Common in the forest from Buea upwards. — B. A.]

Reichenow includes E. teresita in the synonymy of 

 E. Zon^icflWf/a (Swains.), but I do not agree with him in 

 this ; the very much whiter belly of E. teresita is alone suffi- 

 cient reason for separating the two forms. Dr. Reichenow 

 indiscriminately " lumps ^' species and snbspecies which he 

 has not had an opportunity of examining, under one heading, 

 and has thus caused endless confusion for Avorkers on African 

 birds. Antinori obtained the type of E. teresita at Djur, 

 Bahr el Gliazal, in 1861. The species ranges over the 

 greater part of central Africa.
