Dri/osropiitt svl)l.a<i('Uf< Cassin, Proc. Acad. Nat. 8ci. Pliila., V, 1851, ]). 24H (caHti-rn 

 Africa?). 



Three adults from Mount Kilimanjaro, at 5,000 feet. One of these, 

 taken April 5, 1888, was molting- the wing- and tail-feathers. "Feet 

 (of female) slate ])lue; bill black." The female of this species seems 

 to be just like the male, except for rather darker feet and tarsi. AH 

 of these specimens have some white spots on the scapulars. 



The slight difference in pattern of coloration, which alone appears 

 to distinguish the so-called genus T)ry(>^copux from Lan'tdrhix^ is liardly 

 sufficient reason for the recognition of the former.

 of the abdomen.
