The Streaky-breasted White-eye is a distinctive species found in the mountains of Sumatra and Borneo. It is characterized by the streaking on its breast.
Where to spot
Found in the montane regions of Sumatra and Borneo (Indonesia, Malaysia, Brunei). Inhabits montane evergreen forests, often at higher elevations.
How to spot
Look for the faint streaking on its pale breast, along with its white eye-ring and olive-green upperparts. Often found in mixed-species flocks, foraging actively in the mid-canopy. Listen for its high-pitched, twittering calls.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Active during the day. Best observed during mornings in high-altitude forests.

The subtle streaking on its breast, though not always immediately obvious, helps distinguish it from other plain-breasted white-eyes in its range.
