Mr. Ogilvie-Grant exhibited an example of a new species 

 of Fly catcher procured by Mr. Robin Kemp at Gazi^ British 

 East Africa^ which he proposed to call 



Stizorhina grandis, sp. n. 



Adult. Most nearly allied to S. vulpina, Eeich., which it 

 closely resembles in the colour of its plumage, but very much 

 larger. Iris brown ; bill blackish ; feet flesh-colour. 



S. grandis, sp. n. : Total length ca. 8*8 inches ; culmen 

 from gape 0*95 ; wing 4-7 ; tail 4*15 ; tarsus 1*2. 



S. vulpina, Reich. : Total length ca. 6'7 inches; culmen 

 from gape 0*65 ; wing 3"8; tail 32; tarsus 085.

Dr. Y. G. Penrose laid before the Club a copy of 

 the Report of the Migration Committee, which would form 

 Volume xxvi. of the Bulletin of the B. O, C. This Report, 

 which had been issued since the October meeting of the 

 Club, contained the result of the observations on the 

 migratory movements during the autumn of 1908 and 

 the spring of 1909. He said that the volume was the 

 result of a very considerable amount of work, which had 

 been shared by all the members of the Committee, but that 

 by far the largest portion of preparing it had been done by 

 Dr. N. F. Ticehurst and Dr. C. B. Ticehurst. 



The publication of the work had been somewhat costly, 

 and Dr. Penrose said that he would be obliged to ask either 

 the Club or individual Members to assist in meeting the 

 surplus expense. He did this with the more confidence, 

 as the Migration Committee had not asked for any help 

 during the last two or three years. 



It was decided that the question, how the above sum 

 could be raised, should be dealt with by the Committee of 

 the Club. 



The Treasurer made his annual statement of accounts, 

 showing that the finances of the Club were in a satisfactory 

 state.
