Prionochilus Prionochilus is one of two genera flowerpecker that make up the family Dicaeidae. The genus differs from the other flowerpecker genus, "Dicaeum" in having ten long primary feathers in the wing and in the character of its calls. A study comparing the calls of the two genera suggested that "Prionochilus" is basal to "Dicaeum". The genus contains six species, in contrast to the 38 species in the genus "Dicaeum". They have a more restricted distribution than "Dicaeum", occurring in the Philippines, Borneo, Suamtra, Java and the Malay Peninsula. The name "Prionochilus" is derived from the Greek "prion" for saw, and "kheilos" for lip, referring to the minute serrations along the edge of the bill.
