Identificación
Typically dull mid-sized greenbul with a long bill and tail. There is geographical variation, with the western birds more yellowish below, and the eastern birds more whitish. Usually shows a distinctive pale eye-ring. Found in the thick undergrowth and mid-story of forest at middle and high elevations, usually in small groups. The call starts with slow and chatty notes, then accelerates into a grating, up-and-down series. Somewhat similar to Gray-olive Greenbul, but larger, with a darker bill and legs and usually some yellowish tones on the underparts. Similar to brownbuls, but more olive-green on the back and yellowish below.
