      This is the Green Turaco Tauraco persa. The crest of the Livingstone turaco - which you thought it may be - is more pointed and has white endings.

      And don't forget the purple wings.

      I just realised that Green crested turaco is right. This doesn't look like a Green turaco as they have pointed white lines in front of the eyes and under the eyes. Green crested turaco doesn't have any white lines under the eyes and the lines is not pointed.

      as threeple61 has already said, this is a Buffon's touraco Tauraco persa buffoni, which is a subspecies of green touraco. The green-crested touraco is T. p. persa, and this is not one.

      Okay, so we settle with green turaco then, as that is the name of the species as a whole.

      yes Green Touraco is correct as a whole (if you compare pictures of the two subspecies there are differing patterns on white on the face, so they are easily distinguished from one another).
