Taxonomy and systematics

The Uluguru greenbul was originally described in the genus Arizelocichla in 1922.[3] It was then classified to the genus Andropadus before being re-classified back to the genus Arizelocichla in 2010.[4] It was considered conspecific with the mountain greenbul until split to form a separate species in 2009.[5] Some authorities have considered the Uluguru greenbul to be a subspecies of the western greenbul, mountain greenbul or black-browed greenbul.[6] Alternate names for the Uluguru greenbul include the Mulanji mountain greenbul and Uluguru mountain greenbul.
