1. Francolinus shelleyi. 
j Franco linus shelleyi Grant; Neave, Memoirs & Proc. of the 
Manchester Lit. & Phil. Society, vol. 51, pt. iii. p. 1. 
This bird differs from the allied species in not being an 
inhabitant of the thickets &c. of river valleys. It is found 
in the woodland on hills and plateaux.
