11. PSALIDOPROCNE HOLOMEL.ENA. 



Psalidoprocne holomelcena (Suadev.) ; Sharpe, P. Z. S. 1870, 

 pp. 288, 320. 



Mamboio. 



New to East Africa. The range of this species is very uucertrin, 

 as it is found on the Gold Coast and in South Africa from Cape 

 Colony to Natal, but has not previously been recorded from any 

 portion of South Tropical Africa. 



12. Hapaloderma vittatum, sp. n. 



Very similar in size and general coloiiring to H. narina, but 

 diflFers as follows : bill smaller and much narrower, scarcely more 

 than half the breadth ; head darker and of a more olive-green ; neck 

 entirely surrounded by a bluish-bronze collar ; wing-coverts with 

 narrow distinct white bars not freckled with white as in H, narina ; 

 dark portion of the tail violet-blue, very partially edged with green ; 

 white portion of the tail very distinctly barred with bluish black. 

 Culmen 0'6, wing .5, tail 7, tarsus 0"65. 



Hab. Mamboio. 



The only specimen is in extremely bad condition, so much so that 

 I cannot say how far the blue may extend on the throat ; but it ap- 

 pears to be only a narrow ring round the neck. The bars on the 

 wing-coverts and the colouring of the tail, especially the barring of 

 the white portion, are sufficient characters to distinguish it at a 

 glance from H. narina and H. constantia. 



13. Rhinopomastes cabanisi. 



Irrisor cabanisi, De Fil. ; Heugl. Orn. N.O.-Afr. p. 219. 



Mamboio. 



New to East Africa. This species is closely alied to It. minor, 

 but may be readily distinguished by the white patch on the primaries, 

 which is not present in Jj. minor. It ranges from the Upper White- 

 Nile district to Mamboio. 



14. Saxicola pleschanka (Lepech.). 



Saxicola morio, Seebohm, Cat. B. Brit. Mus. v. p. 372. 

 Mamboio. 



New to East Africa. It ranges in Africa ; from Egypt to Mam- 

 boio, and possibly occurs in Algeria. 



15. Motacilla longicauda, Riipp. 



Ugogo. 



New to East Africa. This species ranges from Abyssinia, where 

 it was first collected by Dr. Riippell, to Durban in Natal. 



16. Graucalus pectoralis. 



Graucalus pectoralis, Jard.; Sharpe, Cat. B. Brit. Mus. iv. p. 29. 



Mamboio. 



New to East Africa. It inhabits the whole of Africa between 15° 

 N. lat. and 22° S. lat.
