place any undue reliance upon tliem. The species may wander to Italy, but, in our 

 opinion, further confirmation of the fact is necessary. 



Lieut. Barnes AA^rites from Aden : — " The Pale Crag-Martin is a common permanent 

 resident, breeding freely in the caves, in the face of the cliffs, generally in inaccessible places. 

 I tried to get eggs, and haA^e offered good prices to the Arab and Somali boys for them, but 

 Avithout success. I have several times managed to climb up to nests, only to find them 

 either empty or containing young. On one occasion only AA^as I reAvarded by finding an 

 addled egg, in company Avitli some unfledged nestlings. This egg is similar to, but rather 

 larger than, the egg of Cotyle concolor. They seem to breed throughout the year, as I 

 have seen nests in February, May, July, and October."

Dr. Ragazzi procured this species at Let-Marefia in Shoa in March. Emin Pasha met 

 A^dth it at Bussisi on the eastern side of the Victoria Nyanza, and Mr. F. J. Jackson 

 at Save on Mount Elgon in February. He Av^rites : — " This Crag-Martin was found in a 

 small colony on a pi'ecipitous crag, AA'here they wei'e evidently breeding. I saAv tAvo or 

 three nests fastened on to the face of the rock, like the nests of the Edible Swift." He 

 also states that he saw several among the hills near Turquel in the Siik country.
