a , b. Ad. Nairobi, Kikuyu Forest, 29th June, 1902. 
This rare species has recently been recorded by Mr. Ogilvie- 
Grant from the Mfumbiro Volcanoes, where it was procured 
by Mr. Douglas Carruthers. It was also found at Nairobi 
by Mr. F. J. Jackson. The present specimens, which were 
procured in the latter locality, agree perfectly with those 
examined by Mr. Grant, and are probably both males, as the 
wing-measurement is 2T5 inches ( = 54 mm.) in both. 
71. Philomela golzi Cab. 
Aedon golzi Beich. iii. p. 787. 
a. Ad. Takaungu, 30th March, 1901. (No. 165.) 
P. golzi is known to be found in Equatorial Africa in 
winter, but the British Museum does not contain any 
specimens from that country. The example procured by 
Mr. Percival agrees with those from Turkestan and S. Arabia. 
It was the only specimen met with by him. 
72. Monticola saxatilis (Linn.). 
Monticola saxatilis Beich. iii. p. 699. 
Takaungu, 27th & 2$th March. (Nos. 106 & 
151.) 
[I did not meet with this bird until March 20th, but 
after that date it became extremely common. The males 
outnumbered the females considerably; after March 30th 
more females began to appear. All the birds were extremely 
fat.— A. B. P.]
