Taxonomy and systematics edit

Shelley's greenbul was originally described in the genus Andropadus and re-classified in the new genus Arizelocichla in 2010.[2] Alternatively, some authorities classify Shelley's greenbul in the genus Pycnonotus.[3] Also, some authorities consider the Kakamega greenbul to be a subspecies of Shelley's greenbul. The common name, 'Shelley's greenbul', is also used as an alternate name for the placid greenbul.

Subspecies edit

Two subspecies are recognized:[4]

  • Wilhelmstal mountain greenbul (A. m. roehli) - (Reichenow, 1905): Also named the Masuku mountain greenbul. Found in north-eastern, central and southern Tanzania
  • Nandi mountain greenbul (A. m. masukuensis) - (Shelley, 1897): Found in south-western Tanzania and northern Malawi
