    1. Reviewed by Simon J. Tonge    Sep 23, 2013

    Action: changed name from "Halcyon chelicuti" to "Halcyon albiventris "

    Reviewer's comments:
         "I think this is a Brown-hooded kingfisher based on the reduced striping on the belly, the lack of a white patch on the folded wing coverts and the head pattern"
