49. Fiscus subcoronatus. (694.) 



At Bloemi'ontein the two supposed species of Fiscus inter- 

 breed. I was unable to obtain a male F. subcoronatus or a 

 female F. collar is. 1 found a nest in October : the male, 

 which I shot, was F. collaris, and the female F. subcoronatus. 

 I was very close to the latter and saw her distinctly, but

50. Enxeoctonus collurio. (709.) 



I saw two or three of these Shrikes at Ingogo. A fine
