Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Speciesbox The fire-throated flowerpecker (Dicaeum luzoniense) is a species of bird in the flowerpecker family Dicaeidae that is found in the Philippines except on the islands of Mindoro, the Palawan group and the Sulu Archipelago. It was formerly considered to be a subspecies of the fire-breasted flowerpecker (Dicaeum ignipectus).
Taxonomy
The fire-throated flowerpecker was formally described in 1894 by the Scottish ornithologist William Robert Ogilvie-Grant based on specimens collected by the zoologist and explorer John Whitehead in the mountains of northern Luzon in the Philippines. Ogilvie-Grant coined the binomial name Dicaeum luzoniense.[1][2] The fire-throated flowerpecker was formerly considered to be a subspecies of the fire-breasted flowerpecker (Dicaeum ignipectus) but based on the substantial differences in plumage, it is now treated as a separate species. It is monotypic: no subspecies are recognised.[3]
Three subspecies are recognised:[3]
- D. l. luzoniense Ogilvie-Grant, 1894 – montane Luzon (north Philippines)
- D. l. bonga Hartert, EJO, 1904 – Samar (central east Philippines)
- D. l. apo Hartert, EJO, 1904 – Western Visayas and Mindanao (central west, south Philippines)
