Where to spot
Endemic to the island of Sumatra in Indonesia, inhabiting primary and secondary forests, forest edges, and dense scrub.
How to spot

This species was formerly considered part of the Sunda Bulbul complex, but recent taxonomic revisions have elevated it to a full species based on genetic and morphological differences.
