Submit yoursAn enigmatic dark forest weaver with a reddish-brown forehead and crown and a golden-orange collar on the hind neck. Male has reddish-brown extending to the breast and throat and golden streaks on the back, which the female lacks. Very poorly known and localized, restricted to primary and secondary lowland forest and forest edge in the Ituri and Semliki forests in the western Congo Basin. Although it is distinctive in appearance, it is possible that this species is a hybrid. The voice has been described as a weak chatter.
