One specimen of this species was killed at Luieza, Binder on Stk of 
February, a second one on 12 th of February at Beida, but they were not 
preserved for the collection. According to my notices the cere and bare 
part of the neck was white alive immediately after being killed light rosy- 
pink, but these colours were changing into lilac and bluish at once, after 
the death. 
This Vulture was not uncommon on the way along the Dinder and 
by occasions of skinning crocodils or big animals appeared immediately 
perching on the trees round the corpses in four, five or more individuals.
