Banggai Cicadabird

Edolisoma pelingi Hartert, EJO, 1918

Campephagidae — Cuckooshrikes

Banggai Cicadabird, Edolisoma pelingi, is a passerine in the cuckooshrike family that breeds in the Banggai Islands, east of Sulawesi. It is tied to Peleng, the largest of those islands, and was first described in 1918 by E. J. Hartert from specimens taken there. It was once grouped with the common cicadabird, now called the Sahul cicadabird, but is now treated as a separate species. No subspecies are recognised.
