Like all tbe works of these authors, the Sun-birds of East Africa are here treated of with 

 much care : in the present volume, however, I have found it necessary to separate some of the 

 East-African forms as specifically distinct from their representatives in the other African regions. 

 Thus :— 



Nectarinia jardinei, apud F. & H., -^Cinnyris microrhynchus, Shelley, 1876. 



N. amethystinns, apud F. & H., =C. kirkii, Shelley, 1876. 



N. collaris, apud F. & H., =Anthreptes zambesiana (Shelley, 1876). 



N. jardinei, apud F. & H. (=6 y . microrhpichus, Shelley), and JST. erythroceria, Heugl., are 

 figured ; the locality Mosambique given for the latter is extremely doubtful.
