    Details

    A loose flock at 2.300 m, very active in the higher part of the trees, within fairly dense forest. Moved past me pretty quickly, I only had them in my binoculars appx 20 seconds.
    Approximate size of a White Helmetshrike, jet-black with a clear yellow top of head and nape.
    Calls were heard, this is why I was made aware of their presence, but I have no notes on what kind of calls.
    At the time (1990-94) I was working in nearby Goma town (for TMK Air Commuter), and very litte info on this species scarcity was known.
