M. rhodeogaster (the type of which was from Masailand) 

 is closely allied to M. spodocephalus, from which it is distin- 

 guished in having the breast and flanks of a much greyer 

 colour. It also has a barred tail, whereas in examples of 

 M. spodocephalus in the British Museum these bars are 

 absent. This latter character is, however, of small import- 

 ance, as it has already been pointed out that the variation 

 in the markings on the wings and tail is largely due to 

 immaturity.
