Observation. — .\s alreadv staled I hâve not seen tvpical 

 e.vamples of this bird. One woiild certainlv expect .Annobon 

 Island spécimens to belong to iV. g. niarcliei if this forin can 

 stand, whereas I cannot sée the slightest différence in a bird from 

 that island and in liirds from Gambia, Portuguese Guinea, Sierra 

 Leone, etc. I am donbtful whether this subspccies will survive, 

 but keep it up until spécimens can be examined from Gaboon. 



Corrigenda and Addenda to Part I (Passeriformes). 



In l'art I ot this paper on the Birds of Southern Nigeria 

 published in vol. IX, fasc. 3, pp. 254-426 of the Revue Zoologique 

 Africaine (1922), I dealt exchisivelv with the Passerine birds. 

 After having I wish now to notice certain species which were 

 omitted from the List of Passeres and to thank Professer Neumann 

 of Berlin for drawing my attention to thèse omissions. At the time 

 when I wrote Part I, I was not aware that the German natnralist 

 Mann had collected in Southern Nigeria at Lagos and Okeodan — 

 the latter a mission station situated in the Yoruba countrv north 

 of Lagos. Mann's spécimens are now preserved in the Stuttgart 

 Muséum and were catalogued by Neumann as long ago as 1904. 

 Professor Neumann has obligingly sent me a complète list of 

 Mann's birds as identifîed bv himself with the exception of the 

 Sylviidae and Ti))icliidae which were not contained in this List. 

 Forty-nine species or subspecies were enuitierated, nineteen of 

 which were Passerine birds; of thèse latter, five were not included 

 in Part I of mv paper and are hère included as Addenda. The 

 non-passerine birds obtaiped bv M.\nn are listed in their proper 

 place in Part II now published. Certain other corrections to Part Y 

 (other than printing errors) are included as Corrigenda immediatelv 

 after the Addenda.
