Visayan pygmy babbler
The Visayan pygmy babbler ("Dasycrotapha pygmaea") is a bird species endemic to the Philippines (Leyte and Samar). It belongs to the genus "Dasycrotapha". It was placed in the family Timaliidae, but recently found to be better placed in the family Zosteropidae. It was formerly included with the Mindanao pygmy babbler ("D. plateni") under the common name of "pygmy babbler". 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.
