Four passerines, Gambaga Flycatcher Muscicapa gambagae, Sombre Rock Chat Oenanthe dubia, Green-winged Pytilia Pytilia melba and Yellow-rumped Seedeater Crithagra xanthopygia, are reported here as occurring or breeding in Djibouti. A male Gambaga Flycatcher is the only modern specimen record of this species from Djibouti. Specimens of Sombre Rock Chat, including one with aberrant plumage, confirm breeding in Djibouti, and the species' juvenile plumage is described for the first time. A single specimen of Green-winged Pytilia confirms morphological variation of this species in the region. Yellow-rumped Seedeaters from Dittilou, Goda Mountains (Tadjoura) confirm the species' common occurrence and breeding status in Djibouti. Further surveys are necessary for the comprehensive exploration and documentation of Djibouti's avifauna.
