Stripe-breasted Rhabdornis
Rhabdornis inornatus Ogilvie-Grant, 1896
Sturnidae — Starlings, Rhabdornises
Stripe-breasted Rhabdornis, Rhabdornis inornatus, is a passerine of the starling family that breeds in the eastern Visayas and on Mindanao in the southern Philippines. It was described by Ogilvie-Grant in 1896. The bird is part of a wider group that has been split from close relatives once treated as the same form. It lives in tropical montane and submontane forest, and in Leyte it has also been recorded much lower than usual. Three subspecies are recognised, with separate forms on Samar, Leyte and Biliran, and on Mindanao.
