I. Mr Brown, Bill I big black,
A little before sunset I heard a
Call note resembling that of
M. cinerascens but differing very
that I thought it worth while in-
vestigating, with the result of
seeing four of the above species, and
obtaining three of them. They were
in low Magnit trees, and easily
approached. Did not notice any
prentiariitis as it was late and
I shot on sight. Stomachs
contained portions of buttle.
They appear to differ from M.
erinitis, especially in greater length.
