* Sharpe, Hand-List (1901), 3, 276, asigns the species CO. nigrorum and C. 
olivacea to Abrornis. Oates says: “Abrornis resembles Cryptolopha in everything 
except the tail, which has ten feathers instead of twelve.” As the species men- 
tioned above have twelve rectrices I have put them in Cryptolopha.
