Timor nightjar
The Timor nightjar is a species of nightjar in the family Caprimulgidae. It is found in Southeast Asia on the islands of Timor, Rote and Wetar in the Lesser [Sunda Islands].
It was first described in 2024 by Ben King and collaborators under the binomial name Caprimulgus ritae. The specific epithet ritae was chosen to honour Rita Bobbin, a friend of King. Genetic analysis found that it is most similar to Mees's nightjar.
