Marshall (1942) Chiotiphia linearis Lake Olmego Only 2 seen, [let a time] these perched 6-10 ft in small trees in mixed oof woods on flat land S side lake. Flight very darting and rapid. Chilata Common Groups containing 4-8 generally encountered in undergrowth or lower in forested ravines. One evening heard "Toledo" note in a baobab grove and thought it was some kind of goatsucker, exactly same full penetrating quality of potswell. Turned out to be 2 manikins sitting side by side their calls just a very slight bit out of phase so that it sounded like a single call with reverberation. Found in cooler shaded wooded areas.
