do not consider Buffon’s Martin-pécheur du Cap de Bonne Espé- 
rance to be the same bird as Brisson’s ‘“‘Ispida capitis bone sper” 
(= A. capensis, Linn.); and I think it probable that Buffon hastily 
referred his bird to Brisson’s species, the exact localities of both 
being unknown.

5. On Campephaga anderssoni, an apparently undescribed 
Species of this Genus from South-western Africa. By 
R. B. SHARPE. 
(Plate IV.) 
In the last collection made by the late Mr. C. J. Andersson from 
Damara Land and the adjacent district of Ovampo, I found the bird 
which forms the subject of the present paper. So far as I can make 
out, it is not included by Dr. Hartlaub in his elaborate paper on the 
Campephagine (‘“ Monographische Studien iiber die Gruppe der 
Campephaginen, von Dr. G. Hartlaub,” Journ. f. Orn. 1865, p. 153). 
According to the descriptions given in the learned doctor’s mono- 
graph, the Damara bird would appear to be closely allied to Campe- 
phaga frenata (Heugl. Journ. f. Orn. 1864, p. 255) from the Bogos 
country ; but it differs conspicuously in the colour of the throat. I 
therefore propose to call it after Mr. Andersson, whose untimely
