This concise work presents descriptions of three new bird species discovered during a significant zoological expedition in the Belgian Congo. It aims to contribute to the field of ornithology by documenting new species and expanding knowledge about avian biodiversity in this region. In the text, Chapin meticulously details three distinct bird species, providing extensive descriptions of their physical characteristics, such as plumage, coloration, and anatomical measurements. The first species is identified as "Chætura melanopygia", noted for its size and unique feathering specifics. The second, "Apaloderma minus", is described in terms of its coloration and differences from a closely related species, while the third species, "Ceriocleptes xenurus", raises questions about its behavioral habits, including its diet and elusive nature. The bulletin not only highlights new discoveries but also emphasizes the importance of ongoing research in understanding the richness and complexity of avian life in the Congo's diverse ecosystems.
