Where to spot
Endemic to the island of Seram in the Moluccas, Indonesia, specifically found in the montane forests of the central mountain ranges, at higher elevations.
How to spot
Look for its small size, uniformly dark, dusky plumage, appearing blackish, with a slender, decurved bill. Its habitat preference for higher montane forests helps distinguish it from other Myzomelas on Seram. Listen for thin, high-pitched calls.
