The spectacled flowerpecker is a new species of bird discovered in, and solely recorded from, the forests of north-eastern Borneo, in June 2009, and apparently belonging to the flowerpecker family Dicaeidae. It has not yet been formally described or given a scientific name because of limited information and lack of a specimen.〔Reuters. (''"Spectacled flowerpecker" bird found in Borneo'' ), scientificamerican.com, 13 January 2010, accessed on 15 January 2010.〕〔Walton, Doreen, science reporter. (''New bird species found in rainforests of Borneo'' ), BBC News, news.bbc.co.uk, 14 January 2010, accessed on 15 January 2010.〕 ==Discovery== The new flowerpecker was first observed and photographed on 18 June 2009 by Richard Webster, a tropical ecologist, at the Borneo Rainforest Lodge within the Danum Valley Conservation Area, Sabah, Malaysia. Further sightings and photographs of more than one individual were made over the next two days by Webster, David Edwards from the University of Leeds, and Rose Ann Rowlett. The lodge is sited within unlogged tropical rainforest, 180 m asl at 5°01’43”N 117°45’5”E. The sightings were made from an observation platform on a suspended walkway within the rainforest canopy. The height of the birds sighted was over 40 m above ground level.
