 This specimen was procured by Mr. Woosnam on the 6th of December, about 

 100 miles to the west of Entebbe, and on the following day he obtained typical 

 examples of C. igneiventris, showing that the ranges of these two forms meet at this 

 spot. The bird is a fully adult male, with the orange pectoral tufts and yellow belly 

 and flanks characteristic of G. falkensteini.
