I have only come across the Paradise-Flycatcher once at Beida (12 th 
Febr. 1911). It was a pair, the male disappeared in the dense forest at once, 
wilst the female was procured. The male aquired by Count Königsegg 
at Tiza is adult in white plumage, in which the thigh and 
under tail-coverts are also white; just so are the under tail-coverts in the 
female, which I shot on the Dinder. This bird is more lighter coloured 
above than the females in same age from Abessinia ; the edges of the middle 
secundaries are whereas greyish-white. My opinion is, the Sudanese 
birds must be separated subspecifically from those originating from Abes¬ 
sinia.

For want of Egyptian specimens for comparison I am not able to 
fix whether the Sudanese birds differ from the typical ones. It is sure, 
that the Sudanese birds do not differ in the dark coloration of the mantle, 
wing and tail from those in our collection originating from Abessinia es¬ 
pecially from Harrar, Urso and Maraco, which might be identical with 
the subspecies Picnonotus barbatus schoanus (= P. Arsinoë shoanus) des¬ 
cribed by O. Neumann in Orn. Monats. 1905 p. 77. On the other hand 
the Sudanese birds differ conspicuously from the Danakil birds, .which 
is a good subspecies (P. somaliensis Rchw.). This latter has the back,,
