Saxicola pileata (nee Gm.) ; Shelley, Ibis, 1894, p. 468. 



Shores of Nyasa Lake, south of Karonga. One specimen. 

 To the north of the Zambesi this species, probably, entirely 

 replaces S. pileata. Southward from the Zambesi specimens 

 gradually assume a paler and more sandy colouring, those 

 in the British Museum from Tete, on the south bank of the 

 Zambesi, being almost intermediate in colouring. The late 

 Mr. Seebohm did not consider S. livingstonii to be distinct 

 from the more southern S. pileata, and, I may add, it is 

 known that the female does not differ in plumage from the 

 male (Cat. v. p. 397).
