Any of various birds in the bulbul family Pycnonotidae.

Examples

“We investigated the differences in environmental selection pressures between ecotone and rainforest that could have⟳ driven the song divergence in little greenbuls, in particular the divergence in Fmin (Slabbekoorn & Smith 2002b).”

“The commonest of the dull olive-green greenbuls, the Sombre Greenbul is most easily distinguished by its white eye; the race⟳ to the northeast is much yellower below and could readily be mistaken for a Yellow-bellied Greenbul were it not for its white eye.”

“Birdwatchers based in Africa's savanna belt will generally want⟳ to focus⟳ more on forest birds, but mostly on such common and iconic species as great blue turaco or black-and-white casqued hornbill rather than on glimpsing a selection of more localised but duller forest greenbuls.”
