ISLAND WHISTLER Pachycephala phaionota View in CoL #

Range Rani off Biak, Manim off southern Numfor, small islets in Teluk Cenderawasih ( Mayr 1941).

Status Resident? Ripley collected an immature on Rani, an islet 12.9 km off southern Supiori ( Mayr & Meyer de Schauensee 1939). This record is the easternmost of this supertramp whose distribution is centred on the Raja Ampat Islands ( Pratt & Beehler 2015). A survey of the nearby but ornithologically poorly studied Padaido Islands may reveal the species’ presence there, as the location and habitat appear ideal.
