Committee's view
Background
Reportedly seen with a flock of Oriental White-eye (Z. palpebrosus) - now Swinhoe's White-eye. No descriptions are available in IORA 1 nor Lamont (1998). Listed as an escapee in Lim (2009), doubtful in Wang and Hails (2007). We follow decisions by Wang * Hails (2007) to reject this record due to a lack of information.
Verdict Not accepted (Unverifiable)
