The Rubeho forest partridge (''Xenoperdix obscuratus'') is a small, approximately 29 cm long, boldly barred, brownish partridge with rufous face, grey underparts, olive-brown crown and upperparts. It has a red bill, brown iris and yellow legs. Both sexes are similar. It inhabits and is endemic to forests of the Rubeho Highlands in Tanzania. It was formerly considered to be a well-marked subspecies of the Udzungwa forest partridge, ''Xenoperdix udzungwensis'' of the Udzungwa Mountains, but is now recognized to be specifically distinct 〔Bowie, Rauri C.K. & Fjeldså, Jon (2005): Genetic and morphological evidence for two species in the Udzungwa forest partridge. ''Journal of East African Natural History'' 94(1): 191–201. (PDF fulltext ) 〕). The diet consists mainly of beetles, ants and seeds. Due to ongoing habitat loss, small population size, limited range and overhunting, the Rubeho forest partridge is now endangered == References ==
