Where to spot
Endemic to the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, specifically in montane and lowland rainforests.
How to spot
Patience is key. Focus on the mid to upper canopy of dense forests. Look for typical flycatcher behavior of sallying for insects. Its specific vocalizations, if known, would be a key aid.
