This is a small, dark form found on the coast — the type 

 was described by Fraser from Cape Palmas ; the birds 

 which ^Ir, Lowe procured from Liberia and Sierra Ijeone 

 are all very constant in colour. 



The specimen from Sierra Leone [h) has a longer bill 

 than the other examples obtained, and the measurements 

 are slightly larger throughout. 



Ant/iiis gouldi has been omitted from Mr. Chubb's List of 

 Birds found in Liberia.
