This species occurs also in South (C. olivacea, Sundey.) and West Africa (C. tineta, 
Cass.). The figure in Cretzschmar’s ‘ Atlas’ is incorrect, and not to be recognized. I 
have examined Riippell’s types in the Senckenberg Museum.—0. F. 
[Iris light brown; legs and feet yellow. 
This species is well distributed, having been procured at Undel Wells, May 27, and 
all along the Anseba, from Bejook to Maragaz. Though a very noisy little bird, it was 
difficult to get, as it always kept in the thickest bushes. Its voice is so powerful that it 
was some time before I recognized the performer; the note is very harsh. 
Contents of stomach, minute coleoptera.— IV. J. |
