3o8 APPENDIX. 
^. (? probably, on account of the very bare breast.) Near Siba- 
nani, December 8, 1874. Iris hazel ; bill and legs black. 
[This fine species was hitherto known from a pair of birds only, 
which were purchased a few years back from a dealer by the British 
Museum, and were stated to have come from the Victoria Falls. Mr. 
Oates has now established the Zambesi region to be the habitat of the 
species, and has also procured it 300 miles off the place whence the 
first specimens were obtained. The occurrence of Shelley's Wheatear 
so far south as the Ramaqueban River is very interesting, as we may 
now expect that it will be found still farther to the southwards.]
