Baeopogon is a genus of passerine birds in the bulbul family, Pycnonotidae.
The genus Baeopogon was introduced in 1860 by the German ornithologist Ferdinand Heine with the honeyguide greenbul as the type species. [1] The name combines the Ancient Greek baios (βαιός) meaning "small" or "little" with pōgōn meaning "beard". [2]
The genus contains two species: [3]
The bulbuls are a family, Pycnonotidae, of medium-sized passerine songbirds, and includes the greenbul, brownbul, leaflove, and bristlebill.
