specimens, the outermost primary is twice as long, and the 
wings and tail are more yellowish green. 
This Sun-bird is_, in our opinion^ a small northern race 
of A. fraseri, aud ranges from Liberia to the Gaboon, where 
it meets and overlaps the range of the southern race, 
A. fraseri.

This species has not been obtained previously in the 
Colony nor in the Hinterland. It is curious that Capt. Giffard 
did not meet with it at Gambaga in 1898. The bird is, 
however, by no means common; it is generally to be found 
in pairs, searching quietly for insects about the new buds of 
the trees.
