2 . Useri river, July 18. 



On comparing this specimen with C. caffer and C.affinis, I find it 

 to differ strongly in having the throat whiter and the tail inter- 

 mediate in length.

I have compared this specimen with seven others from Landana 

 and it agrees perfectly. P. aatinorii is probably identical, as the 

 colour of the under wing-coverts varies.

24. Pachyprora mixta, n. sp. (Plate XL.) 



Adult male. Very similar to P. molitor, from which it differs in 

 having scarcely a trace of white on the sides of the forehead ; one 

 or two of the feathers above the ear-coverts are mottled with whitish ; 

 the white nuchal spot very slightly marked ; posterior half of the 

 scapulars uniform grey like the crown and back ; lower back and 

 upper tail-coverts also uniform grey, with no black and white mottling ; 

 the wing, which is very similarly marked to that of P. molitor, has 

 the white portion more contracted ; tail black, with triangular white 

 tips to all the feathers ; the external web of the outer feather is 

 black, only edged with white, while in P. molitor the white crosses 

 the web. Beneath, throat, lower breast, and under tail-coverts white, 

 with a broad pectoral band and the thighs black as in P. molitor ; 

 under surface of the wings whiter than in P. molitor, the under 

 wing-coverts being white with the exception of the outer half of the 

 smaller and median series, which are black. Bill black, legs slightly
