white forehead' and throat under the jaw, with forked tail. Black Swallow, smaller." 

 The first of these species was P. albiceps, Sclater, hut the second has never heen 

 identified; it may have heen only the young of P. albiceps, or, again, it may have been 

 P. orientalis. Colonel Grant says that they were both seen together about scarped 

 rocks, which certainly favours the first proposition. 



The descriptions, as well as the figures on the Plate, have been taken from the pair 

 of birds procured by Mr. Jackson on Mount Elgon. 



The specimen from Maurui, recorded by Dr. Fischer as Atticora holomelcena, was 

 probably of the present species. TVe have, unfortunately, not been able to trace the 

 bird in question, as Dr. E,eichenow informs us that it is not in Berlin. He thought 

 that it might be in the Hamburg Museum, but Dr. Kraeppelin tells us that it is not in 

 that collection.
