Mayr's Streaked Honeyeater is a medium-sized honeyeater with distinctive streaking on its underparts. It is endemic to the montane forests of New Guinea, where it plays a role in pollination.
Where to spot
Found in the montane rainforests and forest edges of southeastern New Guinea, typically at higher elevations where flowering plants are abundant.
How to spot
Scan flowering trees and shrubs in montane forest. Its calls are typically soft and inconspicuous, so patient visual searching is often more effective than relying on sound.
When to spot
Active throughout the day, year-round. Look for it foraging near flowering plants, especially during peak flowering seasons.

Like other honeyeaters, its brush-tipped tongue is perfectly adapted for extracting nectar from flowers, which forms a primary and essential part of its diet.
