Raffles's malkoha

Rhinortha chlorophaea

Raffles's malkoha is a species of cuckoo. It was formerly often placed in "Phaenicophaeus" with the other malkohas, but it is a rather distinct species, with several autapomorphies and sexual dimorphism. It might not even be very closely related to the true malkohas, but form a very basal lineage of cuckoos; in any case, its placement in a monotypic genus "Rhinortha" is well warranted.
