Comment:
Status: IUCN 2003 and IUCN/SSC Action Plan (2001) - Lower Risk (lc)
Comment:
Comments: bicolor species group. Included in caffer by Hill (1963b), but clearly distinct; see Lawrence (1964), Kock (1969a), Heller (1992), Jones et al. (1993), and Cotterill (2001f). Subspecies limits are problematic, and it is possible that this complex includes more than one species
Comment:
Wilson and Mittermeier (2019) note, 'Populations in Central and West Africa refer to different, but as yet unnamed taxa. They have been referred to as separate lineages in the literature, but almost certainly are valid species. This confusion needs urgent attention. Many subspecies have been described but it is not clear what their status is, taxonomy requires reassessment"
