• Brown-throated Sunbird (Plain-t S) Anthreptes malacensis
• Black Sunbird Nectarinia aspasia: Common but the males are quite nice when seen well. Three subspecies were seen.
• Olive-backedSunbird (Yellow-bellied S) Nectarinia jugularis
• Crimson Sunbird Aethopyga siparaja: A nice male seen in Lore Lindu NP.

DICAEIDAE

• Yellow-sided Flowerpecker Dicaeum aureolimbatum: The commonest of the flowerpeckers on Sulawesi.
• Crimson-crowned Flowerpecker Dicaeum nehrkorni: Some great views of this bright species in Lore Lindu.

Crimson-crowned Flowerpecker

• Flame-breasted Flowerpecker Dicaeum erythrothorax: Just one for most but fortunately it was a male that showed well along the logging track on Halmahera.
• Grey-sided Flowerpecker Dicaeum celebicum: Seen in several areas, but best of all were the views at Dumoga Bone

ZOSTEROPIDAE

• Mountain White-eye Zosterops montanus
• Lemon-bellied White-eye (Moluccan W-e) Zosterops chloris
• Black-ringed White-eye Zosterops anomalus: Actually quite a nice bird (for a white-eye!!) and contrary to Coates and Bishop they did show yellow undertail coverts. One of the reasons that the detour to Ujung Pandang may become a permanent fixture.
• Cream-throated White-eye Zosterops atriceps: Some brilliant views on Halmahera. Quite a character and another distinctive white-eye.
• Black-fronted White-eye Zosterops atrifrons
• Streak-headed Dark-eye(Streaky-h White-eye) Lophozosterops squamiceps

PASSERIDAE

• Tree Sparrow (Eurasian T S) Passer montanus

ESTRILDIDAE

• Blue-faced Parrotfinch Erythrura trichroa: A few tree top encounters but they were always a little elusive.
• Black-faced Munia (Moluccan M) Lonchuramolucca: Many nice views on Sulawesi and Halmahera.
• Scaly-breasted Munia Lonchura punctulata
• Chestnut Munia Lonchura malacca
• Pale-headed Munia Lonchurapallida: After several brief encounters we obtained great views at Palu airport.

FRINGILLIDAE

• Mountain Serin (Indonesian S) Serinus estherae: Two that were found by Dave showed fantastically up at Anaso. The subspecies involved shows orange rather than yellow in the plumage. A great bird to see and it would appear that the form on Gunung Rorekatimbu (the mountain that Anaso is on) has not yet been described.

MAMMALS

• Spectral Tarsier (Celebes T) Tarsius spectrum: Some brief views only in Dumoga Bone.
• Moor Macaque Macaca maura: The small macaques that we saw briefly at Karaenta Forest are now generally referred to as this.
• Tonkean Macaque Macaca tonkeana: The macaques at both Lore Lindu and Dumoga Bone are now referred to as this species.
• Bottle-nosed Dolphin Tursiops truncatus:
• Northern Dwarf Squirrel Prosciurillus murinus
• Sulawesi Giant Squirrel (Red-bellied S) Rubrisciurus rubriventer
