Apalis darglensis , spec. nov. 
In this species the lower half of the throat is yellow as in A. spelonkensis , 
but in other respects it more closely resembles A. venustus ; it is, however, 
easily distinguished from both by the under-surface being olive green, 
only the middle of the breast and abdomen being yellowish, mixed with 
white. 
Type, $ T.M. No. 8404 ; ex coll. Austin Roberts, Dargle District, 
Natal, 6.IX.09. (Iris, cream colour ; bill, black ; legs and feet, flesh pink.

Apalis flaviventris , spec. nov. 
This species most closely resembles A. thoracica , but may be readily 
distinguished by the under-surface of body being white instead of olive 
coloured, and the yellowish wash forms a conspicuous patch on the 
abdomen ; also, the wing-coverts are greyer and not so olive coloured, and 
the wings longer, measuring over 54 mm. 
Top of head and back and sides of neck dark grey ; back and rump 
dark grey washed with olive green, which increases towards and is most 
distinct on the latter ; upper tail-coverts and central tail-feathers dark 
grey ; wing-coverts greyer than the back ; primaries and secondaries dark 
brown, outer margins silvery grey, inner margins white. A dark streak 
through the lores and lower ear-coverts dark brown ; cheeks, chin, and 
throat pure white ; a crescent-shaped band across the crop black ; under- 
surface of body below the crop band white, assuming a yellowish wash 
towards the abdomen, which is pale yellowish ; under tail and wing coverts 
white. Two outermost pairs of tail-feathers white, dark grey at the base ; 
antepenultimate pair dark grey at the base and on the margins, for the 
remaining part white ; the remaining feathers uniform dark grey.
