The current placement of the streaked bulbul in the
genus Ixos is not fixed with any certainty. As the affiliations of the
Javan bulbul (the
type species of the genus) remain to be re-studied, it is not yet clear if the streaked bulbul should instead be placed in the genus
Hemixos or possibly placed in a new genus. Both the alternate name 'green-backed bulbul' and the synonym
Hypsipetes malaccensis are also shared with the
eastern bearded greenbul. The name 'streaked bulbul' is also used as an alternate name for the
Javan bulbul. ==Footnotes==
