Euprinodes rufigularis angolensis, subsp. nov. 



Adult female. Most nearly allied to E. rufigularis (Fraser)

 account of the journey and of the results obtained : — 



" From Entebbe we marched through Uganda (Ankole) 

 and British Ruanda (the Kigesi District) straight to the 

 Birunoa Volcanoes, north of Lake Kivu. These volcanoes 

 are eight in number, and two are in activity, viz., the two 

 western ones. We camped at several places on the different 

 mountains, of which the highest (Karissimbi) is about 

 4500 metres. Our highest camp was situated at an 

 approximate altitude of about 3800 metres, and during our 

 two and a half months' stay among the mountains we
