white: wing coverts the fame, with black fhafts ; the greater 
coverts black, margined all round with white: quills black, 
edged with white: the tail cuneiform; all the feathers white, 
with the fhafts black: the legs lead-colour. 
This fpecies is found at Senegal, and the Cape of Good Hope; 
alfo at. Madaga/car. At the firft-named place it frequents the 
borders of the rivers Gambia and Niger, and lives on flies, 
like the reft of the genus. 
The three birds defcribed in Briffen *, here drawn together, 
differ much in length; but this arifes merely from the want or 
prefence of the two middle tail feathers, which alone are fifteen 
inches in length.
