Mavrogordato gave a most interesting talk and exhibited a trained Barbary Falcon. A new race of Artomyias fuliginosa from Southern Nigeria. Mr. Charles Vaurie sent the following: — During the examination of some African flycatchers I had the occasion to compare the various populations of Artomyias fuliginosa Varreaux, in the collection of the American Museum of Natural History. This collection includes specimens from all the known parts of the range. The population from southern Nigeria is, I find, very distinct from all the others and I propose to separate it under the name of: artomyias fuliginosa chapini, new race. Description: Differs from all other known populations of the species by having the ground colour of the throat, lower breast, belly, and under tail-coverts distinctly whiter; the under wing-coverts and axillaries also appear to average paler. Distribution: Known so far only from three adult specimens collected at Oguta, southern Nigeria, from 21st September to 17th November, 1901, by Dr. W. J. Ansorge. Type: Adult male, Oguta, 12th October, 1901; American Museum of Natural History, Eothschild Collection, No. 649761. Published 6th July, 1951.
