 Curruca chocolatina, Eiipp. Syst. Uebers. p. 37, t. xiv. 



Iris a peculiar greyish yellow, bill bluish grey. 



Not very rare on the highlands, generally seen on trees. 

 I am informed by Dr. Finsch that he has examined the 

 original specimen of Curruca chocolatina, and that it 

 also belongs to this species. 



Family HIEUNDINID^. 



96. Hirundo melanocrissus, Eiipp. 



Eiipp. Syst. Uebers. p. 17, t. v.— Heugl. Om. N. 0. Air. No. 118. 



Only seen by me at low or moderate elevations, but 

 found at greater heights by Eiippell and Heuglin. I do 

 not recollect ever seeing this bird on the tableland. 



97. H. alpestris, Pall. 



PaUas Zoog. Eos. As. i. p. 534.— Heugl. Oru. N. 0. Afr. No. 117. 

 S. rufula, Terum. Man. d' Om. iu. p. 298. 



I shot two specimens of this bird at Komayli, in 

 February. 



98. H. puella, Temm. 



Fauna Japoaica, p. 33. — Heugl. Om. N. 0. Air. No. 120. 



H. abyssinica, Gu^r. Eev. Zool. 1843, p. 322. — Ferr. et Gal. iii.

Habesch, No. 25. 

 Cecropis striolata, Eiipp. Syst. Uebers. p. 18, t. 6. 



This bird appeared to me to replace H. melanocrissus 

 in the temperate region. I have, however, very few 

 notes on the Swallows, as I had not many opportunities 

 of shooting specimens.
