210 CAMPEPHAGA PHC@NICEA 
mens at Biballa and Quillengues, and, according to his notes, 
it is known at the former place as the “ Bimba.” The species 
has also been recorded from Zululand (Woodward), Muansa 
and Muniuni (Neumann), Arusha, Nawasha Lake and Kifuni 
(Fischer), and Kilimanjaro (Sjéstedt). It has been mentioned 
from Nandi and Uganda, which localities I look upon as 
doubtful, as full-plumaged males have not yet been obtained 
in either of those countries. The egg is figured by Messrs. 
Haagner and Ivy, and is stated to be distinguishable from 
that of C. nigra by its greyer ground-colour and by its shorter 
ovate shape.

Adult male. Black strongly glossed with deep green on the head, neck, 
back, edges of quills and tail-feathers, and the whole of the under parts as 
in C. nigra, from which it differs in having the lesser and median coverts 
bright red with a subterminal bar of pale yellow next to their white bases ; 
under surface of the quills with yellowish inner margins. Iris dark brown; 
bill black with the gape yellow; feet black. Total length 8 inches, culmen 
0-6, wing 4:1, tail 4-0, tarsus 0°75. 
Adult female. Similar to that of C. migra, but with less bright yellow on 
both the wings and tail; the yellow on the three outer tail-feathers being 
confined to the terminal quarter of their inner webs and only extending 
down the final half of the exterior web of the outer feather. Wing 3:2. 
The Red-shouldered Cuckoo-Shrike ranges over northern 
Tropical Africa between the Equator and 15° N. lat. 
This species, like C. migra, is accompanied throughout its
