Negros Striped Babbler
Zosterornis nigrorum (Rand & Rabor, 1952)
Zosteropidae — White-eyes
Negros Striped Babbler, Zosterornis nigrorum, is a bird of montane Negros in the western Philippines, where it lives in the Oriental Region. It belongs to the white-eyes family and is confined to forested mountain country. Its most useful field mark is its paler, more finely streaked underparts, together with a clearer facial pattern and a generally lighter look than the closely related Panay striped babbler. It occurs in tropical moist montane forest, usually in the lower storey, and can also use disturbed woodland, secondary growth and dense edge thickets where some forest remains.
