Fujian Niltava

The bird looked relatively big and from breast to vent was evenly bright orange, I wonder it was a Rufous-bellied Niltava. Pls advise.
Sorry for the bad resolution as the photo was taken in quite a distance.

This is an interesting bird. Looking at photos of Fujian and Rufus-bellied Niltava one thing that strikes me is that the crown of the Rufus-bellied Niltava is solidly bright iridescent blue. On your bird, the crown appears more like a Fujian Niltava.
Rufus-bellied Niltava is currently in Category F. I don't know whether that means the record of that species was considered unsatisfactory by the RC or the bird was considered to be of captive origin.
