(ochreous) female as that figured in the Symbolae Physicae 
has been received from Arabia since Klug’s time. Shortly, 
he thinks that Klug had before him two nearly allied 
species, an Arabian male and an African female. 
Meanwhile Swinhoe described the Aden species as yer- 
buru, and Dixey is strongly of opinion that it would be 
convenient for that name to stand, and the name daira 
to be confined to the African species. Probably Klug’s 
type (female) of dara came from Ambukél. 
Petherick took this species on the White Nile. Dunn 
found it on the Bahr al-Zarafa. Loat took it near Kaka 
and at Mongalla. Selous took two males at Tawila and 
other two near Tawfikiya. The Swedish expedition sent 
home four males and four females, from Abba Island, 
Renk and Kaka. 
In 1909 I took a male at Kharttim, six males and four 
females at Ad-Duwém, a female at Hillet Abbas, and three 
males and two females at Tawila. 
In 1912 I captured a male between Séba and Khartim, 
and met with it more or less commonly all the way up the 
White Nile to Rejaf. My specimens vary in colour and 
even more in size, but the dwarfs were not localised, e. g. 
at Malék two males were taken, one of them described as 
“a dwarf with very little black,’ the other as “a fine 
large specimen with much black.” One male was yellowish 
in ground-colour; in some females there is an orange-red 
flush before the tip, but in a large specimen this is quite 
absent, the tip being broadly black. 
Mrs. Waterfield took a number at Port Sadan, where I 
found one of each sex. Rothschild took it on the Atbara, 
also at Shendi. Cholmley took a female “ below Shelal 
mountain.” 
It occurs in Abyssinia, Somaliland and British East 
Africa.

The type is said to have come “ex Arabia deserta.”’ 
Dr. Dixey considers 7. nouna, Lucas, T. saxeus, Swinhoe, 
T. glycera, Butler, T. demagore, Felder, and T. heuglini, 
Felder, to be all synonyms of this variable species, which 
has a wide distribution almost throughout Africa, and 
extending to 8. Arabia. 
Petherick took a male on the White Nile, also a female 
which Butler referred to demagore, Feld. Dunn took it on
