North Moluccan Cicadabird
Edolisoma grayi Salvadori, 1879
Campephagidae — Cuckooshrikes
North Moluccan Cicadabird, Edolisoma grayi, is a passerine in the cuckooshrike family that breeds in the northern Moluccas of Indonesia, from Morotai and Halmahera to Bacan, with a separate population on the Tukangbesi Islands. It was described by Salvadori in 1879. The bird was once treated as part of the common cicadabird, now called the Sahul cicadabird, but is now recognised as distinct. Two subspecies are accepted, one on the Tukangbesi Islands and the other across Morotai to Bacan.
