Mr. W. R. Ogilvie-Grant described a new species of 

 Yellow Flycatcher from East Africa : — 



Chloropeta sTOREYi, sp. n. 



Adult. Similar to C. massaica, Fischer & Reichenow, but 

 easily distinguished by having the entire crown sooty black.

 tail 2'55; tarsus I'O.

Obs. Specimens of Chloropeta massaica from Southern 

 Abyssinia and the White Nile have been separated by 

 Mr. Oscar Neumann as C. umbriniceps, and are described as 

 having the crown of the head slightly darker. This supposed 

 difference has, however, no real existence, and the bird in 

 the British Museum from Konduro, S. Abyssinia (one of 

 Mr. Neumann^s typical specimens), is quite indistinguishable 

 from examples collected at Nairobi, Ruwenzori, &c., which 

 are typical examples of C. massaica. 



Mr. Ogilvie-Grant also described the following new 

 species from Ruwenzori : — 



Spermospiza poliogenys, sp. n. 



Adult female. Similar to the adult female of S. guttata
