RUFOUS-TAILED BUSH-HEN Amaurornis moluccana #
Range A. m. moluccana Biak, Supiori.
Status Resident. Surprisingly, the Biak and Supiori population is the sole representative of this taxon on the Teluk Cenderawasih Islands. Collected only by Ripley ( Mayr & Meyer de Schauensee 1939), it is uncommon and easily overlooked unless vocalising, and has been recorded by very few visitors.
Breeding 24 August 2007: Bengtsson (2007) reported an adult with a juvenile.
