'* On August 20th we reached, after 19 days' forest march, the 

 Urumbi station, the westernmost point of this journey, the road 

 lying now to south until we reach Kirundi (Kabongi's place), on 

 the Upper Congo, where I think Herr BohndoriS collected before 

 me.

" The last evening at Majoja brought a novelty in the 

 shape of : — • 



" No. 1915. Poeocephahxs guUelmi, Jard., d . A pair of this 

 pretty species was seen and, although both brought to bay, only the 

 male secured, the female (apparently without red forehead) hiding 

 itself in the high grasses. Seen and heard at Ipoto also but never 

 obtained. Always in pairs, nesting in tree-holes, selecting always 

 a branchless spot. Not rare, but shy. Its voice not like Psitt. 

 erithacus, but a stronger action of that of Poeoc. meyeri. 



" On August 27 we crossed the Lindi river and stopped at 

 Valiasnge on the western bank. Here a very rich avifauna but 

 no time to collect, the preparation for a new forest march being 

 made. Obtained : —

" Two entirely spoilt specimens of a HaplopeUa brought in, but 

 found useless. 



" No. 1918. Turturoenas, sp., S . The whole day fruitlessly 

 spent in pursuit of this species ! I had given up all hope of 

 obtaining a specimen when, after having started, a man overtook me 

 on the road and brought me the present one living but badly 

 handled, some primaries and the secondaries having been plucked 

 out : I kept it, however, just for identification. At Kilongo- 

 longa's place this species was not infrequent, but very shy and 

 never came within range. Here, in Valiasnge, it frequents in the 

 early morning and towards evening the rice- and Indian-corn
