Rufous-throated Francolin (Scleroptila whytei) has been elevated to a full species from Shelley's Francolin. Refer Rob Little's article in March/April 2020 edition of "African Birdlife" |

Crawshay's Francolin = sub-specie S. l. kikuyuensis , with reduced spotting on the white band below the eye down to the side of the neck, reduced spotting on the upper breast and paler belly. Pending IOC specie split. Very similar to sub-specie S. l. crawshayi (see BirdPix 95678 from Malawi). |
