Hainan Leaf Warbler (Phylloscopus hainanus)
About the Hainan Leaf Warbler
The Hainan leaf warbler or Hainan leaf-warbler (Phylloscopus hainanus) is a species of Old World warbler in the family Phylloscopidae. It is endemic to mountains of southern Hainan Island, China. Hainan leaf warbler inhabits primary, selectively logged, and secondary forest as well as scrub at elevations of 640–1,500 m (2,100–4,920 ft) above sea level. It might have previously inhabited also lowland forests, but very little of those remain. Although it can be locally common, the overall population is small (estimated at 1500–7000 mature individuals) and it is known from a small number of sites only. Moreover, it is threatened by habitat loss and fragmentation. It occurs in a number of protected areas. Image

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 31 recordings for this species: 16 CC BY-NC-SA · 15 CC BY-NC-ND. None of them permits commercial use, so there is no player here — the page is kept as a profile so the bird is not missing from the guide.
As soon as someone uploads a freely licensed recording, we mirror it and the player appears here.
