Wikipedia Abstract

Sassi's olive greenbul (Phyllastrephus icterinus lorenzi), also known as Sassi's greenbul, is a songbird in the Pycnonotidae family. The scientific name commemorates the Austrian zoologist Ludwig Lorenz von Liburnau. It is found in Democratic Republic of the Congo and Uganda. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. It is becoming rare due to habitat loss; when it was still considered a good species by the IUCN, it was classified as Near threatened.
