  has 
  hitherto 
  been 
  confounded 
  with 
  the 
  typical 
  A. 
  oiveni. 
  

   This 
  form 
  differs 
  from 
  A. 
  oweni 
  in 
  its 
  much 
  larger 
  size 
  (being 
  

   quite 
  as 
  big 
  as 
  A. 
  australis), 
  in 
  its 
  comparatively 
  very 
  small 
  

   bill, 
  and 
  in 
  the 
  heavy 
  black 
  bars 
  on 
  the 
  feathers. 
  I 
  propose 
  

   to 
  call 
  this 
  Apteryx 
  occidentalis, 
  a 
  subspecies 
  of 
  A. 
  oiveni.

  Since 
  the 
  publication 
  of 
  the 
  ' 
  Ornithologie 
  d^ 
  Angola 
  ' 
  in 
  

   1881, 
  the 
  well-known 
  collector 
  M. 
  Anchieta 
  has 
  not 
  ceased 
  

   to 
  send 
  specimens 
  from 
  various 
  localities 
  of 
  the 
  interior 
  

   of 
  that 
  country 
  to 
  the 
  Lisbon 
  Museum. 
  M,

   du 
  Bocage 
  now 
  gives 
  us 
  the 
  corrections 
  and 
  additions 
  to 
  his 
  

   work, 
  necessitated 
  by 
  the 
  receipt 
  of 
  these 
  collections 
  and 
  

   in 
  other 
  ways. 
  They 
  relate 
  to 
  about 
  70 
  species, 
  of 
  which 
  

   Scoptelus 
  anchietce 
  and 
  Nectarinia 
  gadowi 
  are 
  now 
  described 
  

   as

  of 
  the 
  Black 
  Stork 
  {Ciconia
