Bulbuls (Pycnonotidae)
Streak-breasted Bulbul (Ixos siquijorensis) - HBW 10, p. 234
French: Bulbul de Siquijor
German: Schieferkopfbülbül
Spanish: Bulbul de Siquijor
Other common names: Slaty-crowned/Mottle-breasted/Siquijor Bulbul
Taxonomy: Iole Siquijorensis Steere, 1890, Siquijor, Philippines.
Taxonomy unsettled. Race cinereiceps is vocally, morphologically and behaviourally rather different from others, and likely to merit treatment as a separate species. Nominate race and monticola are more similar to each other, but differences may exceed those usually acceptable at race level. Thorough review of species limits necessary. Three subspecies provisionally recognized.
