About the Hylocitrea

The hylocitrea, also known as the yellow-flanked whistler or olive-flanked whistler, is a species of bird endemic to montane forests on the Indonesian island of Sulawesi. It is monotypic within the genus Hylocitrea. It was traditionally considered a member of the family Pachycephalidae, but recent genetic evidence suggests it should be placed in a monotypic family of its own, Hylocitreidae, related to the waxwings in the family Bombycillidae, the hypocolius in the family Hypocoliidae, the palmchat in the family Dulidae, the silky-flycatchers in the family Ptiliogonatidae, and the now-extinct Hawaiian family Mohoidae.
