Iris yellow or light hazel ; bill black ; feet black or greyish-brown. 



[A few examples of the Black-faced Wren- Warbler were seen in the Mubuku 

 Valley below the forest-line, but the species was decidedly rare there : at the north 

 end of the range it was numerous among the rough country and straggling forest at 

 6500 ft. It was also plentiful in the Mpanga Forest, E. of Ruwenzori, frequenting 

 the thick undergrowth, among which it might always be heard, but was very seldom 

 seen.— R B. IF.]

The birds from Fort Beni agree peifectly with typical specimens from Cameroon. 



[Baird's Wren- Warbler was plentiful in the Eturi Forest between Fort Beni and 

 Irumu, but it was not seen further west than Mawambi. It was usually found among 

 the dense vegetation on the edge of the forest around the native-clearings and 

 villages.— i?. B. W.]

[Reichenow's Wren-Warbler was found on Ruwenzori up to 6500 ft., the lower limit 

 of the forest-zone, and inhabited the more open cultivated ground. It was also found 

 on the plains all around the mountains, and at Fort Beni on the edge of the Eturi 

 Forest. I have often heard this little bird singing beautifully, late in the evening and 

 in the early morning. — 7^. B. W.~\
