I first met with this species in the neighbourhood of the 

 mountain in flocks of five or six. When alighting on any 

 tree they used to commence a noisy song-like chatter, not 

 unlike that of a canary in tone. The native name is " Si 

 tawi tawi," which is rather descriptive of the song. 



Range. Fernando Po and Cameroon. 



Examples of another species of Zosterops, described by 

 Count Salvadovi as Z. brunnea, were obtained by Mr. Newton 

 in 1895 on the Pico Santa Isabel at an altitude of 2509 

 metres. (See p. 399.)
