Adult male and female. Iris dark brown ; bill and feet black. 



This species is very closely allied to the form inhabiting Cameroon and Fernando Po, 

 which has been named G. preussi Eeichenow, and may perhaps be distinguished from 

 G. reichenowi by having the outer webs of the wing-coverts and quills edged with 

 brighter olive. There is no difference in the length of the wing-measurement, which, 

 in a large series of specimens from Euwenzori, Kisumu, and Nandi, varies from 55 to 

 57 mm. 



I have little doubt that C. preussi should be added to the synonymy of the present 

 species ; but I have only been able to examine three male examples of the Western 

 form. 



The female of this species does not appear to have been described ; but it agrees 

 with the description of the female of G. jireusd given by Dr. Eeichenow, except that 

 the throat and crop are said to be grey, whereas in the present species they are olive 

 like the rest of the underparts. 



[Reichenow's Double - collared Sun-bird was met with between Entebbe and 

 Euwenzori. It was plentiful on the east side of the range up to an elevation of 

 7000 ft., and was occasionally seen as high as 8000 ft. — B. B. W.]
