Media notes
A bird climbing on a trunk. Published in HBW Volume 13 on page 123. Original HBW caption: Conservationists are keeping a close eye on the Yellow-billed Nuthatch, which is listed as Near-threatened. The distribution of this restricted-range species extends over parts of the Endemic Bird Areas of Hainan and Da Lat Plateau, as well as the Fan Si-Pan and Northern Laos Secondary Area. The population on Hainan (race chienfengensis) was discovered as recently as 1963 and is endemic to the island. Its survival here is far from assured, as the island’s forest cover declined by 72% between 1949 and 1981, when just 7% of the total land area remained forested. IBC scientific name: Sitta solangiae chienfengensis. Elevation: 428 m. Date added to IBC: June 21, 2016.
