Subspecies
No subspecies.

Genus as currently constituted probably polyphyletic. In-depth analysis of morphology, voice, behaviour and genetics required to redefine its limits. Present species previously placed, along with Black-crested Bulbul (Pycnonotus flaviventris), Ruby-throated Bulbul (Pycnonotus dispar), Black-capped Bulbul (Pycnonotus melanicterus) and Bornean Bulbul (Pycnonotus montis), in a separate genus Rubigula, to which all five may yet be returned. They form a superspecies, and have often been treated as conspecific under the name "P. melanicterus".
