Poicephalus meyeri ni/ansce Neamann, Nov. Zool. 1908, 

 p. 383 : Unyoro. 



?. 13.ii.l0. 



I have kept this bird separate, as it is quite different iu 

 coloration from the last. It is a smaller and greener bird, 

 but belongs to the dark group. 



These birds were fairly plentiful, but were shy and high- 

 flyers. 



Locality. Butikiro, in Uganda. 



Poicephalus meyeri virescens. 



Several were seen in southern Kavirondo and Lunibwa 

 district. They were in small flocks, feeding freely on the 

 native grain-crops. 



Localities. Kibos, south to Lumbwa, in British East 

 Africa.

PalaBornis cubicularis. 

 c?. 20.iv. 11. 



This adult male is in fresh plumage. It resembles other 

 specimens of P. cubicularis in the yellow-green of the fore- 

 head, but lacks the grey on the posterior half of the crown 

 and nape ; the cheeks are a bright greenish yellow. The 

 grey-blue collar is very narrow, while the salmon-pink is 

 visible only at the sides of the neck, and is not separated 

 from the black on the side of the throat by any blue line. 

 The bird is altogether brighter than any specimen in the 

 Tring Museum. 



Locality. Ibrahim's Camp, Nile Province, Uganda.
