Guinea, the Brown Oriole is similar visually and also vocally to the Helmeted Friarbird (Philemon buceroides), although it is streaky below and lacks the friarbird’s bill knob. The Dusky-brown Oriole on Halmahera is a close visual mimic of the Dusky Friarbird (Philemon fuscicapillus) and difficult to distinguish in the field, and on Seram the Grey-collared Oriole is virtually identical to the Seram Friarbird (Philemon subcorniculatus).
