It is interesting to find C.puel/a and C. brehmeri inhabiting 

 the same country, and I incline to the idea that the latter 

 may be the young of the former. 



11. Haplopelia plumbescens, sp. nov, 



Similis H.principali, sed saturatior et plumbescentior : subtus 

 plumbescens, gula et abdomine albis, subcaudalibus 

 pallide cinereis distinguenda. Long. tot. circa 10*0 poll., 

 culm. 0'65, alae 5"5, caudae 3"5, tarsi 1'05. 

 S imm. Efulen, Jan. 21, 1902. "Zum." 

 The specimen, though not quite adult, shews such differ- 

 ences from H. principalis that it is quite impossible to unite 

 it with the latter. It is altogether a darker and more lead- 

 coloured bird, and the under surface of the body is nearly 

 uniform leaden grey, with the lower abdomen whitish and 

 the under tail-coverts pale cinereous, the chin and upper 

 throat being white. 



12. HlMANTORNIS H.EMATOPUS.

 ? ad. Efulen, May 31, 1902. "Nkule ngu." 



The specimen has a decidedly greyish head, and is ap- 

 parently older than the other examples in the British 

 Museum. 



13. Canirallus batesi. 



Canirallus batesi Sharpe, Bull. B. O. C. x. p. lvi (1900). 



S ? ad. Efulen, July 29, 1903. 



The colour of the back varies somewhat in these two 

 specimens, the female being more olive-brown, while the 

 male is slightly more olive-greenish. The specific differences 

 between C. batesi and C. oculeus may turn out to be of less 

 importance than I formerly supposed.
