Laniarius liberatus (Sibley and Monroe 1990, 1993; Dowsett and Forbes-Watson 1993) is now treated as a synonym of erlangeri of Ethiopian Boubou (Laniarius aethiopicus) following Nguembock et al. (2008) who also recommend splitting Laniarius aethiopicus into Ethiopian Boubou (Laniarius aethiopicus), Manda Boubou (Laniarius nigerrimus), Zanzibar Boubou (Laniarius sublacteus) and Tropical Boubou (Laniarius major), proposals that are currently under review by the BirdLife Taxonomic Working Group.
