Nearly allied to our C. rupestris, Scop., but of a darker brown above, on the sides, 
vent, and under tail-coverts; chin and throat pale fulvous; the second, third, fourth, 
and fifth tail-feathers with a large oblong white mark on the inner web, like C. rupestris. 
The young bird of the latter is very similar to C. fuligula, but has all the under parts 
of a light rusty brown, with indistinct brownish spots on the throat, and the feathers of 
the upper parts edged with a pale rusty brown. 
The specimens collected by Mr. Jesse are the same as those from South Africa in the 
Berlin Museum, except the under wing-coverts being dark brown, with rusty margins, 
whereas in the southern specimens the under wing-coverts are of a more uniform fulvous. 
The occurrence of C. fuligula in North-east Africa is a new fact for the geographical 
distribution of this species, which was hitherto known only from South and West 
Africa.—0. F. 
[Rather common among the rocks as far down as Sooroo.— W. J.]

There is only one species of this (chiefly American) family distributed over the whole 
of tropical Africa. Dr. Brehm got the 7. narina in the Bogosland, and Von Heuglin 
observed it in the Abyssinian coast lands.—0. F. 
[I obtained only one example of this Trogon, and only know of one other specimen 
being procured during the expedition, by Lieut. Sturt. Contents of stomach, insects; 
among them a large Mantis. I am almost positive I saw this bird near Gelamet ; but, 
after a long chase, I returned without shooting it. The specimen obtained was sent me 
in the flesh by Major Thelwall, who shot it—W. J.]
