A new species of nightjar from Ethiopia

Ibis, Volume 137, No. 3, Year 1995

A new species of nightjar is described from a single wing salvaged from a road corpse in 1992 on the Nechisar Plains, Ethiopia. The species is unknown in life. The wing is highly distinctive, particularly because of the unusual position of the white patch on the primaries. Suggestions as to its nearest relatives must await description of an entire individual. Copyright © 1995, Wiley Blackwell. All rights reserved
