The Cachar Bulbul - a comprehensive description

We documented over 250 species of birds in the Karimganj District of Assam. When I completed my work at the Makunda Christian Leprosy and General Hospital, I spent several months at Bhopal. During this time, I was invited by "Birds of the World", the most comprehensive database of all the birds of the world, to revise the species account of one of the rare, little known species in Assam, the Cachar Bulbul, Iole cacharensis.

This task took a few months but when it was completed, it became a comprehensive review of known information about this species. It was accepted for online publication in March 2022.

The revised species account can be viewed online here: 10.2173/bow.cacbul1.02 ( https://birdsoftheworld.org/bow/species/cacbul1/2.0/introduction )
