About the White-vented Whistler

The white-vented whistler (Pachycephala homeyeri) is a species of bird in the family Pachycephalidae. It is found in the southern Philippines and a few islands of Malaysia. Its natural habitats are tropical moist lowland forest and tropical moist montane forest. The alternate name 'white-bellied whistler' should not be confused with the species of the same name, Pachycephala leucogastra. Formerly, some authorities considered the white-vented whistler to be a subspecies of the mangrove whistler. Three subspecies are recognized: P. h. homeyeri – (Blasius, W., 1890): Found in the Sulu Archipelago and Basilan; Sipadan and Pandanan Islands, off eastern Sabah (Malaysia) P. h. major – (Bourns & Worcester, 1894): Found on Cebu (Philippines)
