Mr. W. L. Sclater on Birds collected 
Gorongcza forests in Portuguese East Africa. It was 
usually observed in small parties diligently searching for 
insects in the tops of the larger trees along the river-banks. 
It is an active bird, keeping continually on the move and 
constantly calling; in this respect and in its movements it 
much resembles the White-eyes. 
The soft parts are :—Irides very pale yellow; bill dusky 
black; legs yellowish brown; toes much paler.]

[“Imbuzana” (Little Goat-Kid) of Zulus. 
1 have noted this Warbler from Ivnysna, Natal and Zulu- 
land, and the Inhambane district of the Portuguese country. 
It is a woodland-haunting species, and is usually observed 
singly, creeping about the thick undergrowth and thickets. 
Its peculiar kid-like call is remarkably loud for so small a 
bird and is decidedly ventriloquial, while it is impossible to 
locate the bird by listening to it, and it is only by careful 
watching that it can at last be detected. 
The soft parts are :—Irides yellow ; bill black; legs and 
toes fleshy.]

P. Beira, May (1); Tambarara, May (1). 
The birds from Beira and Tambarara undoubtedly belong 
to this widely spread tropical species, which seems to replace 
C. olivacea in the northern portion of Portuguese East Africa. 
[This species was noticed sparingly in the Beira and 
Gorongoza districts, and frequented the undergrowth and 
thickets in the -woods and forests. Its call, actions, and 
habits resemble those of C. olivacea. 
The soft parts are:—Irides raw sienna; eyelid slightly 
yellow; bill black; legs and toes fleshy.]
