The Philippine oriole (Oriolus steerii) is a species of bird in the family Oriolidae. It is endemic to the Philippines. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests. Though the species is fairly common throughout its range, the Cebu race (O. s. assimilis) has not been sighted since 1906 and is believed extinct; with the near-total lack of forest on the island, this does not seem impossible. Order: Passeriformes, Family: Oriolidae.
