Prigogine's nightjar
The Prigogine's nightjar or Itombwe nightjar (Caprimulgus prigoginei) is a nightjar which breeds in tropical central Africa. It is known from only one specimen taken in the Itombwe Mountains in Zaire in February 1952. It appears to be a forest species, but nothing is known of its habits or breeding, although it is likely to nest on bare ground like its relatives. It is assumed to be a nocturnal insectivore like other nightjars. The male's song is unknown, but unidentified nightjar calls heard in the breeding area include a rapid churring and a knocking sound.
