602 JOUE>-AL OF THE LATE DR. HUH PASHA. [Nov. 0. 



" No. 1893. Ploceus nigricollis, Vieill., $ . 



"No. 1894,95. 5 ad., J jr. A very striking, probably new- 

 species, found on the ground under low brushwood, where it 

 behaved itself like the Erythropygia. 



" No. 1896. Alseonax; cf. no. 1872 etc., £ . 



" No. 1897; cf. no. 1889 etc., $ . Exactly alike to no. 1853 ; 

 inner web of primaries rusty red with black tips. 1 have very 

 carefully dissected this specimen and found it a $ . It seems, 

 therefore, that the £ , besides beiug black, show no rusty red, 

 whereas the $ are grey aud show rusty red. 



" No. 1898. Accipiter J . Never before collected ; seems not 

 fully adult, as the colour of iris and the rusty tips of some second- 

 aries show. Measurements : 332 mm. (9"-28) ; 16 (0"-04) ; 

 138(5"-52); 99 (3"-8); 35 (I'M). I do not know if this is a 

 younger bird of A. hartlaubi, Verr., of which I have no description. 



" No. 1899. Eremomela badiceps, Eras., 5 . This is only the 

 second specimen of this pretty species I ever collected. The first 

 was obtained on June 2'J, L891,at Kitimba, Uvamba (0° 43' L.N.), 

 in the forest bordering the western hills of the Semliki valley. It 

 seems, therefore, with many western birds, to find its eastern limit 

 with 30° L. E. 



"No. 1900; cf. nos. 1894, 95. A happy encounter, being the 

 J to the above noted 2 ad. and <5 jr. A probably new species. 

 It is to be distinguished from the $ only by its colours being 

 somewhat darker and the bill being entirely black. 



"No. 1901. Agapornig (an swinderniana ?), g • 



"No. 1902. TerpnpJumt (an cristata, Gin.?), d . Seems some- 

 what different from the dark-bellied species, and has certainly no 

 white vent nor thighs. 



" On August 1 we left Ipoto for Urumbi ; another Manyueraa 

 settlement in the forest. On our way to the Ituri, which ha- to 

 be crossed, we observed numerous C'riiw/cr, Corythasola, Cucid '<. 

 Halcyon senegalensis, several Malimbus. The banks of the Ituri 

 being thickly clothed with high forest, there were, besides a few 

 Glareola on the rocks in mid-stream, no water-birds visible. Abun- 

 dant are here everywhere different species of Hornbills, from the 

 small Lophoceros camurus to the big C'eratogynina atrata. I may 

 here observe that during our stay at Ipoto no Eaven nor Crow- 

 was seen, and of Columbida only Treron calva and TympanUtria 

 tympanistria were seen. Once I have seen a big Columba (Turtur- 

 a no*?), entirely stone-grey, somewhat scaly, belly aud vent pure 

 white, broad circles around eyes bright red : quid ? 



" ( ra August 9th, by the carelessness of our Manyuema headman, 

 the whole batch of collections was thrown in the river Lenda, 

 which had to be crossed by boat. Eity ! On the banks of Lenda 

 river — primaeval forest — numbers of a small entirely black Swallow 

 with white markings on tail or rump. All specimens shot were 

 swept away by the current. 



"No. 1903. Terpeiphone nig deeps, Hartl.. rf • Never before 

 collected.
