Excerpt from The Oologists' Record, 1921, Vol. 1: A Quarterly Magazine Devoted to the Advancement of Oology in All Parts of the World Ploceus bojem' [(hartl. Pfusch) Calm], Bojer's Weaver was commoner on Mombasa Island than on the mainland. Nests were usually within reach, on tall slender shrubs. I took one clutch of 3, but 2 was usual. I did not find the differences in colour mentioned by Reichenow, my series of over twenty eggs showing little variation. On the whole they reminded me of the eggs of P. Dimidiatus (antin. Salvad.) of Uganda, both in colour and size, which is curious, as the birds are placed in different sub-genera.
