Taxonomic Swap 116370 (Committed on 2022-11-03)

Rwenzori Nightjar does not merit recognition as a species, based on vocal similarities (Dowsett and Dowsett-Lemaire 1993) to Abyssinian Nightjar, and the absence of significant plumage or morphometric differences between the two (Louette 1990, Jackson 2014). The combined species becomes known as Montane Nightjar Caprimulgus poliocephalus.
