The Cambodian flowerpecker (Dicaeum cambodianum) is a species of bird in the family Dicaeidae that is native to east Thailand and Cambodia. It was formerly considered to be a subspecies of the fire-breasted flowerpecker (Dicaeum ignipectus).
Taxonomy
The Cambodian flowerpecker was formally described in 1928 by the French ornithologists Jean Théodore Delacour and Pierre Jabouille based on a specimen collected at Bokor in southern Cambodia. They coined the trinomial name Dicaenum beccarii cambodianum.[2][3] The Cambodian flowerpecker was formerly considered to be a subspecies of the fire-breasted flowerpecker (Dicaeum ignipectus) but based on differences in plumage, it is now treated as a separate species. It is monotypic: no subspecies are recognised.[4]
