Range and Population:

Ptilocichla falcata is endemic to Palawan in the Philippines, where it is known from 11 localities spread across the island and was formerly locally common. There are post-1990 records from just three sites, St Paul's Subterranean River National Park, Iwahig penal colony and the Ilog river. Although this distribution probably reflects observer site-bias, reports indicate that it has become generally rare at these sites. Given that it appears to be reliant upon primary lowland forest, it is likely to have declined substantially. However, undiscovered populations may exist in the largely unsurveyed north of the island. (Ref. 65857)
