The portion of the collection which was formed in the neighbourhood of Entebbe, 

 at the north end of Victoria Nyanza, is of special interest. Entebbe may be regarded as 

 a great central junction where elements of all the tropical Faunas meet. Most of the 

 more widely ranging species of birds belonging to the East-African, White Nile, West- 

 African, Angolan, and South-African Faunas are to be met with there, and probably 

 there is no spot on the African continent where so many different species are to be 

 found. 



The following 96 species are characteristic of the great central chain of Lakes, some
