Birds of the Gold Coast Colony S^c. 315 
The sexes are alike in plumage. In immature birds the 
feathers of the wing are reddish brown, not dark brown, and 
lack the olive tinge. 
This also applies to the young of C. platycercus. 
In the British Museum, C. reinwardti and C. stictolcemus 
are represented by the following specimens : — 
C. reinwardti. 
Adult: Gambia {Jardine). 
„ „ {Jai'dine). 
J, „ (Rendall). 
„ Casainance (coll. Sharpe) 
C. stictolcemus. 
Adult : Fantee {R. B. Sharpe). 
„ „ (Ussher). 
„ ,, (Ussher). 
„ Accra (Shelley). 
„ „ (BitcMey). 
Adult 2: Shonga (W.A. Forbes). 
Adult (5: Gambaga (Northcott). 
We found this new Crateropus on the Upper White Volta 
River, frequenting the thick undergrowth by the banks. In 
habits it resembles other members of the genus, but, unlike 
C. platycercus, is not found in the open country. Through- 
out the breeding-season it is met with in small parties.

Nov. Zool. vi. p. 422 (1899) (Gambaga). 
Prahsu, Gambaga, and Salaga. 
This is an abundant species, both in the forest-country 
and the Hinterland.

Prahsu, Fumsu, and Krachi. 
Abundant in the forest, its Chat-like note being con- 
tinually heard. In our immature birds the wings lack the 
olive-greenish tinge of the adults, and are more rufous, while 
the lower mandibles are brownish horn- coloured.
