White-lined Honeyeater

Meliphaga albilineata

Least Concern

The White-lined Honeyeater is a nectar-feeding honeyeater that also eats fruit and insects and helps pollinate native plants in Arnhem Land and nearby northern Australia. It uses its brush-tipped tongue to exploit flowers and often follows seasonal blooms; local movements can make it conspicuous when trees are in flower. Fun fact: honeyeaters are important pollinators across Australasia and the Pacific.
