The Fernando Po birds are the true E. htirostris (Strickl.) 

 and the Gaboon and Congo specimens appear to me to be 

 identical ; the tail is decidedly reddish brown and the 

 moustachial streak is of a brighter yellow than in the 

 Camaroon birds. 



The latter have a somewhat darker rufous-brown tail, 

 greener upper surface, and a pale sulphur-yellow moustachial 

 streak. I propose to call this form E. efulenensis. The 

 bird from the Gold Coast — E. congener (Reichen.) — has a 

 dusky brown tail, somewhat darker than in the Camaroon 

 form, to which it is very closely allied, shewing the same 

 sulphur-yellow moustachial streak. All three races are very 

 much alike in colour and measurements, the latter being as 

 follows : — 



E. latirostris (Strickl.). — Fernando Po, seven males, wing 

 3-2 to 3-4 inches. 



Fernando Po, four females, wing 2*9 to 3*2 inches. 



Gaboon, five specimens, wing 3*0 to 3*3 inches. 



Landana, Congo, one specimen, Aving 3\3 inches. 



E. efulenensis. — Efulen, five males, wing 3*1 to 3*4 inches. 



Efulen, four females, wing 3*0 to 3" 15 inches. 



E. congener (Reichen.). — Gold Coast, six specimens, wing 

 2*9 to 3-2 inches.
