The species is abundant and widely distributed; it faces no significant short-term risk.
The warbling white-eye is a tiny olive-green bird with a strongly marked white ring around the eye that gives it its name. It is extremely abundant in Japan, Korea and China, where it visits flowers in search of nectar and insects. Introduced to Hawaii in the 1920s, it has become the most abundant land bird in the archipelago and a serious problem for the native birdlife.
