Previously known only from a single female collected in Mount Klabat Klabat Volcano , this species was rediscovered in May 1996 at Lore Lindu National Park in Central Sulawesi . The common and scientific names of this species refer to a local superstition it is associated with a wet plopping sound, repeated twice, that may be heard in the nighttime in its habitat. Locals believe this bird to be a demonic entity that tears the eyes of sleeping people out, hence the sound. The voice recorded during more recent studies does not match this description however see also Devil Bird .
