Analysis and responses to questions seem good. Agree that there are insufficient data for the threat status of this species to be assessed. Very limited useful data are available which partly reflects the limited investment in ornithological studies in much of central Africa. Dedicated capacity building through field training in DRC, CAR, Congo and Gabon is priority to help improve knowledge of this species and many others in the region. The absence of a useful field for DRC is a further constraint. The absence of a field guide may not be a commercial priority but it is a scientific and conservation priority.
Many thanks to everyone who has contributed to this discussion. We greatly appreciate the time and effort invested in commenting. The window for consultation is now closed and we are unable to accept any more comments until 12 February 2024. We will now analyse and interpret the information, and we will post a preliminary decision on this species’ Red List status on this page on 12 February 2024, when discussions will re-open.
Based on available information, our preliminary proposal for the 2024 Red List would be to adopt the proposed classifications outlined in the initial forum discussion.
There is now a period for further comments until the final deadline on 18 February 2024, after which the recommended categorisations will be put forward to IUCN.
The final 2024 Red List categories will be published on the BirdLife and IUCN websites in December 2024, following further checking of information relevant to the assessments by both BirdLife and IUCN.

Recommended categorisation to be put forward to IUCN
The final categorisation for this species has not changed. Prigogine’s Nightjar is recommended to be listed as Data Deficient.
Many thanks for everyone who contributed to the 2024.1 GTB Forum process. The final 2024 Red List categories will now be published on the BirdLife and IUCN websites in October 2024, following further checking of information relevant to the assessments by both BirdLife and IUCN.
If there was ever a candidate for data deficient, this bird is it!
