There is a specimen of this Vulture collected by Riippeii 

 in '• north-east Africa "' in the Museum, and it has been occa- 

 sionally recorded from Egypt. We think it quite possible 

 that it may occur in the Sudan, hut the evidence at 

 present is not conclusive. Rothschild and Wollaston (Ibis, 

 1902, p. 22) record it as common at Shendi, but Butler 

 in his notes is of the opinion that the birds seen were 

 possibly examples of Otogyps nublcus, i. e. Torgos trache- 

 I'lotus nnbicus.
