Corrections to previous " Contributions to the Ornithology 

 of the Sudan." 



No. I. [' Ibis,^ 1905, p. 301). 



P. 321. No. 45. — The bird referred to as Lagonosticta nigricollis 

 Heugl. was L. lakvata Riipp. (see ' Ibis,' 1908, p. 219). 



P. 337. No. 104. — The Nightingale referred to as Lusciola golzi (Cab.) 

 is L. PHiLOMKLA (Bechst.). I greatly regret this serious error. 

 By a slip a wrong identification of my first specimen was given 

 me by a high authority, and I named subsequent specimens from 

 comparison with this skin. Plentiful as these " Sprossers " are in 

 Khartoum during their autumn migration southwards, I have 

 never seen them at all in the spring, and believe that they must 

 return north on a different line. 



P. 358. No. 175. ViNAGO waalia (Gm.) ? — The note should be taken 

 as applying to Vixago calva (Temm. & Knip). 



P. 369. No. 215. AsTUR unduliventer (Riipp.) ? — This was Astur 

 SPHENURUS Riipp.
