j\lr. Bates also met with this species on the Como River, 

 60 miles from Gaboon. 



On comparing the ftmales of the Chaunonoti from 

 Camaroon and the Congo with those from the Gold Coast, 

 I find that the latter have rufescent instead of dusky 

 brown tails. On this account I think it correct to recognise 

 two forms : the true C. sabinei occurring from Sierra Leone 

 to the Gold Coast, and C. melanoleucus (Verr.) from 

 Camaroon to the Congo. I cannot see any difference in the 

 plumage of the males. Many grey-headed birds are bright 

 cinnamon-buff below, and I think that these are probably 

 young individuals.

The female is perceptibly smaller than the male, as Prof. 

 Reichenow has pointed out in his ' Vogel Afrikas.*
