(1894 : Wembere Steppes) ; Hartert, Tierreich, Aves, 
Liefer, i. p. 57 (1897). 
No. 506. ? ad. Ravine, March 4, 1897. Bill black; 
feet scaly brown ; iris brown. Not nearly so plentiful as 
C.frcenatus, from which it is easily recognised when on the 
wing by its larger tail and wings. It is also much more 
active, darting up and down more like a Bat in the way 
it twists and turns. The other skims along nearer to the 
ground. Stomach contained beetles and tree-bugs swallowed 
whole.

This appears to be the most plentiful of the Goatsuckers. 
No. 413. S ad. Ravine, Feb. 23, 1896. Bill dusky 
black; feet dusky brown ; iris brown. Plentiful. Stomach 
contained two large wood-boring Hymenoptera. 
No. 488. ? ad. Ravine, Feb. 26, 1897. I found the 
nest of this bird with two eggs under a large bush on the 
bare ground. The eye of the parent, as she sat on the nest 
with the sun shining directly into it, was dull claret-coloured, 
and looked exactly as a bird does when blood forms in the 
eye when shot in the head.
