Kimberley honeyeater
The Kimberley honeyeater (''Meliphaga fordiana'') is a bird in the honeyeater family, Meliphagidae. It was formerly lumped with the white-lined honeyeater but, based on DNA research, it is considered a separate species by most authorities. The IUCN, however, has not separately assessed the species, and still considers this taxon to be a subspecies of the white-lined honeyeater. Papers in 2014 and 2015 provided further evidence that the Kimberley and white-lined differ not only genetically, but also in song and foraging ecology. The Kimberley honeyeater is endemic to northern Australia.
==Description==
The Kimberley honeyeater is similar in appearance to the white-lined honeyeater, having dark grey upperparts, light grey underparts, grey eyes, with dark grey below the eyes and a black beak. It is distinguished from the white-lined honeyeater by the lack of citrine edging on the upper surface of the remiges and retrices, pale creamy-buff under-wing coverts, and a milky-white belly.〔Schodde & Mason, p.263.〕
