Symposiachrus malaitae

The Malaita white-eye (Symposiachrus malaitae) is a small passerine bird native to the island of Malaita in the Solomon Islands. It is characterized by its distinctive white eye-ring and olive-green plumage. These birds are typically found in forested areas, including primary and secondary forests, as well as forest edges and clearings. They forage for insects and fruits in the canopy and understory of the forest. The Malaita white-eye is known for its melodious and varied song, often heard during the breeding season. While the population size and trend of this species are not well-documented, it is generally considered to be of least concern in terms of conservation status.
