Northern Yellow White-eye, Zosterops senegalensis, is a passerine of the white-eye family that breeds widely across Africa. It occurs across sub-Saharan Africa, with records from Senegal, Gambia and Mauritania in the west through to Ethiopia and Eritrea, and south to northern Angola. First described by Bonaparte in 1850, it was once treated as part of the Angola white-eye. It is a small yellow bird with a clear white eye-ring, yellow underparts and head, a black stripe through the lores, and a black bill.
