Description
Summary:Apus horus (Heuglin, 1869) LITERATURE. — Balanca et al. (2007). STATUS. — Excluded. REMARK. — Reported for W National Park (Balanca et al. 2007), but not further considered as present in Burkina Faso. The species has a mainly western and southern African distribution, but in 2018 a colony was unexpectedly found and carefully documented in northern Senegal (Piot & Bacuez 2021), so further research in Burkina Faso are warranted. : Published as part of Boano, Giovanni, Belemsobgo, Urbain, Silvano, Fabrizio, Hema, Emmanuel M., Belemsobgo, Aristide, Dimobe, Kangbéni & Pavia, Marco, 2022, An annotated checklist of the birds of Burkina Faso, pp. 27-107 in Zoosystema 44 (2) on page 39, DOI: 10.5252/zoosystema2022v44a2, http://zenodo.org/record/5999691 : {"references": ["BALANCA G., CORNELIS D. & WILSON R. 2007. - Les oiseaux du complexe WAP.
