About the Black-fronted White-eye

The black-fronted white-eye (Zosterops chrysolaemus) is a songbird species. It is closely related to the Old World babblers, and its family Zosteropidae might better be included in the Tiimalidae. The black-fronted white-eye was formerly considered a subspecies of the green-fronted white-eye (Zosterops minor), and until it was split as a distinct species, the name "black-fronted white-eye" was also used for Z. minor. It is found in New Guinea. Quite common, it is considered of least concern by the IUCN. Species fact sheet by BirdLife

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 9 recordings for this species: 4 CC BY-NC-SA. None of them permits commercial use, so there is no player here — the page is kept as a profile so the bird is not missing from the guide.

As soon as someone uploads a freely licensed recording, we mirror it and the player appears here.
