Frances's Sparrowhawk (Madagascar, Comoros)

A number of diurnal raptors, including Frances's Sparrowhawk, Yellow-billed Kite and Madagascar Harrier-hawk hunt Malagasy Paradise Flycatchers.

Both sexes of the Anjouan Sparrowhawk resemble the male of the nominate race of Frances's Sparrowhawk from Madagascar, but are markedly smaller and lack most of the barring on the underside.

The Anjouan Sparrowhawk (Accipiter francesiae pusillus), also known as Anjouan Island Sparrowhawk, Ndzuwani Goshawk or Joanna Island Goshawk is an extremely rare subspecies of Frances's Sparrowhawk (Accipiter francesiae).
