of the Lydenburg District. 201 
berg, as well as in the bush near Pretoria; at the last place 
it was running up a tree. 
37. PsIrTacus MEYERI. 
I saw several of the birds in the bush near Rustenberg, and 
shot one. I have received them from Marico and from the 
northern parts of the Transvaal. 
38. TURDUS LITSITSIRUPA. 
I shot one of these Thrushes amongst some brushwood 
about twenty miles north of .Potchefstroom. I have often 
caught a glimpse of this bird in the underwood; but it seems 
to be rather shy in its habits. 
39. TURDUS OLIVACEUS. 
This species is pretty plentiful in the bush at Macamac. I 
had one given to me which was said to have been shot some- 
where in the Potchefstroom district. I never observed any 
in the Free State. 
40. CRATEROPUS JARDINII. 
I have seen this bird in the district of Potchefstroom, but 
never killed one myself. . I was told by one of my men that 
he had shot it not far from the river; and I have seen a spe- 
cimen said to have been procured at Marico. 
4). CossyPHA CAFFRA. 
I received this speeies from Lydenburg, and saw a few at 
Macamac. ; 
4.2. SAXICOLA BIFASCIATA. 
But few specimens of this bird came under my. notice. I 
procured a male, however, on a journey from Potchefstroom 
to Lydenburg ; it was flitting about the stones on a hill-side 
near Wittewater Rand. I have since seen it between Pot- 
chefstroom and Bloemfontein, Orange Free State, always on 
elevations, and never on the plains. : 
43. PRATINCOLA TORQUATA. 
I procured a female of this bird at Macamace, and received 
a specimen from near Pretoria in 1874.
