rufous in the outer margin. Its gloss is less developed tban 

 that of the bird from Juja. 



This may serve as a further illustration of the variation 

 of these Paradise Flycatchers.

Only in half the number of these specimens does the 

 white on the wing extend from the middle to the greater 

 coverts. Half the number should thus belong to the form 

 named »ambiguus>> by Madaracz. The value of this charac- 

 ter has been contested as well by Reichenow and Dearborn 

 as by the present writer, and the correctness of our opinion 

 is shown by one of the present specimens being »ambiguus» 

 on one side, but not on the other. The variability as to 

 the amount of white on the wing is further proved by the 

 fact that one of the male specimens from Juja has the outer 

 edge of one of the innermost secondaries white, thus display- 

 ing a characteristic which should distinguish »major» Hart- 

 LAUB from the true cethioyicus. As well »ambiguus» as »major» 

 ought thus to be regarded only as individual aberrations of 

 cethiopicus, even if they are more or less numerous in cer- 

 tain localities. That f. i. ambiguus not is a geographic race 

 is evident from the fact, that, although Kilimanjaro is the 

 type locality, even from there typical cethiopicus can be 

 obtained etc.
