Identification
A medium-sized bird of lowland and montane forest and more open wooded areas in the west-central Philippines. Dark brown above with a grayish-brown streaked crown, a white belly, white under the base of the tail, and a warm reddish-brown throat and chest. Somewhat similar to Negros Jungle-Flycatcher and White-vented Whistler, but considerably bigger, with a longer bill and no white throat. Song is a metallic up-and-down melody ending in a jumble. Also gives some screeching calls.
