Distribution: Democratic Republic of the Congo

The description of the distribution of this bird doesn't include the Democratic Republic of the Congo. I've just watched a BBC documentary which states that they have lived in DRC for 44 million years. Could anyone shine some light on this, please?

You are right @Francish7: - my bad as the one who made that map, have replaced it by a more accurate one which includes country boundaries and you can see that it just occurs in parts of the DRC. Shyamal (talk) 17:51, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your kind reply, @Shyamal:! Francis Hannaway (talk) 20:13, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
