Where to spot
Endemic to the montane forests of central New Guinea, primarily found at high elevations.
How to spot
Look for its olive-brown upperparts, paler underparts, and often a distinctive facial pattern. Listen for its loud, clear, and complex whistling song, characteristic of high-altitude whistlers.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Most vocal during early mornings and late afternoons, particularly during the breeding season.
Named after Hendrikus Albertus Lorentz, a Dutch explorer and ornithologist, this species is a specialist of the colder, high-altitude environments of New Guinea's central ranges.
