speculated that the White-chested Swift types might have been partial albino Black Swifts. The immature White-collared Swift has a reduced white collar, more or less obscured or scaly (Bond 1979, Peterson and Chalif 1973) or interrupted on the sides (Hilty and Brown 1986), and thereby resembles the Biscutate Swift. In some individuals the white collar may be entirely lacking (Ridgely 1976), making them easier to confuse with the Black Swift. More
