  White-eye - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Silvereye, Zosterops lateralis, naturally colonised New Zealand, where it is known as the Tauhau, from 1855.
The genus Apalopteron, formerly treated in the Meliphagidae, has recently been transferred to the Zosteropidae on genetic evidence.
The birds of this group are mostly of undistinguished appearance, the plumage above being generally either mouse-coloured or greenish olive, but some species have a white or bright yellow throat, breast or lower parts, and several have buff flanks.

 COMPARATIVE BATHING BEHAVIOR IN SOME AUSTRALIAN BIRDS
The bathing behavior of Alcedinidae (2 species), Dicruridae (1), Meliphagidae (16), Meropidae (1), Muscicapidae (5) and Zosteropidae (1) is described and compared with that of other species.
The birds were observed from a blind while they bathed in a water hole with a sloping shore line and flanked on one side by shrubs.
Although more data are needed, it is suggested that the bathing methods used by birds differ at the generic level and not necessarily at the family level.

 Auk, The: Phylogenetic relationships of Micronesian white-eyes based on mitochondrial sequence data
We focused on taxa endemic to islands in Micronesia, specifically Zosterops conspicillatus, Z. semperi, Z. hypolais, Rukia oleaginea, and Cleptornis marchei.
(1987), we also addressed the relationships of two atypical species in the family Zosteropidae: Rukia oleaginea, which is endemic to the island of Yap; and Cleptornis marchei, which is endemic to Saipan and Agiguan in the Marianas.
However, H. Pratt advanced the hypothesis that Cleptornis is a species of white-eye, based on behavioral, ecological and zoogeographical evidence (Pratt et al.
