5 thoughts on “Pale-billed Sicklebill (Drepanornis bruijnii): Revise global status?”
A frequently encountered specie son the lowland forests in its range. Population assessment fieldwork is needed to establish a more accurate status of species. The major logging of the forests in Papua both legal and illegal will have a negative effect of the species but this is very slow as there is still plenty of forests suitable for the species in New Guinea.

Based on available information, our preliminary proposal for the 2022.2 Red List would be to adopt the proposed classifications outlined in the initial forum discussion.
There is now a period for further comments until the final deadline on 24 July 2022, after which the recommended categorisations will be put forward to IUCN. The final 2022.2 Red List categories will be published on the BirdLife and IUCN websites in December 2022, following further checking of information relevant to the assessments by both BirdLife and IUCN.
