Black-fronted White-eye

Zosterops chrysolaemus Salvadori, 1876

Zosteropidae — White-eyes

Black-fronted White-eye, Zosterops chrysolaemus, is a passerine found in New Guinea, within Australasia. It belongs to the white-eyes, family Zosteropidae, and was described by Salvadori in 1876. It was once treated as part of the green-fronted white-eye, Zosterops minor, and the same English name was used for that bird before the split. The species is also noted as being closely allied to the Old World babblers, with its family sometimes placed with the Timaliidae.
