One of these specimens has two of the secondaries marked 
with white externally and also on the inner web, but only 
on one wing, so that this peculiarity may be due to albinism. 
Dr. Reichenow, however, mentions individuals from German 
East Africa which he believes to be hybrids between 
H. crassirostris and H. leucoptera.
