Claims by Hptm Robert Kowalewski 1940

According to his bio, he shot down a seaplane and a fighter in 1940 when with Führungskette X Fliegerkorps. Former is believed to have been Walrus P5647/700 Sqn (HMS Devonshire) on 18 May 40 so any ideas on the fighter?

According to"Two commissions on Devonshire" royalnavymemories.co.uk the fighter was a bomber, (NB: RN aircraft ID very suspect as per the norm.
Hope this helps.
