Green-fronted White-eye

Zosterops minor Meyer, AB, 1874

Green-fronted White-eye, Zosterops minor, breeds in Australasia on Yapen in Geelvink Bay and in northern and west-central New Guinea. It is a songbird in the white-eye family. The species was described by Meyer, AB, 1874. It is found in New Guinea and nearby offshore islands. Some authorities have treated it as part of Z. atrifrons, and the name black-fronted white-eye was once applied to Z. minor before Z. chrysolaemus was recognised as separate.
