by id from Rumpi Hills northwest of Dikome Balue, Cameroon (call)

Subspecies
No subspecies.

Has been suggested that it forms a superspecies with Baumann's Greenbul (Phyllastrephus baumanni), Toro Olive Greenbul (Phyllastrephus hypochloris) and Sassi's Olive Greenbul (Phyllastrephus lorenzi), but relationships with these species, especially the last-mentioned, seem remote.
