Where to spot
Endemic to the Solomon Islands, found in lowland and hill forests, including disturbed areas and forest edges.
How to spot
Scan the mid-levels of forest trees. Look for its typical cuckooshrike flight and posture. Local knowledge may be beneficial due to its restricted range.

This species, like many island endemics, has evolved in relative isolation, making it a unique component of the Solomon Islands' biodiversity.
