It belongs to the family Pycnonotidae and was described by Lesson in 1839. It is associated with subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests. A distinguishing feature is that the breast can sometimes appear slightly yellow. It is also known as the white-eyed brown bulbul and the white-eyed bulbul, though that second name is shared with another species.
