Description
This 20 cm-long bulbul is a rather drab, nondescript species without a crest. Its wings, back and tail are dull dusky green; the face is lighter, and the throat and underside are yellowish-white. The most prominent feature is a sooty-brown cap reaching down to eye height.
It produces chattering calls, similar to those of the Black Bulbul (H. leucocephalus).
