5 thoughts on “Sula Pitta (Erythropitta dohertyi)”
Burung Indonesia currently conducting bird species survey in Peleng Island, where total 11 area representing different habitat type, altitute, land cover in east, central and western part of the island were surveyed. Initial result showed that Sula Pitta observed only in 5 sites and absent in 6 others. the 6 sites varies in altitute and each represent parts of the island (east, west and central), all these sites where the Sula Pitta absent is highly disturbed and mostly covered by agriculture and bushes, also some were degraded by grazog for livestock. Meanwhile all the the observed Sula Pitta location were almost exclusively in the area where the canopy cover occurs and provided from well- growth trees.
The main threat of biodiversity in Peleng island are the loss of habitat from slash and burn for agricultural activity and unsustainable use natural resources by the community. these threats occur in most of the island, and given that 98% of the island were composed of karst ecosystems and small island, the future impact of the threat will be severe
Thus, we suggest that the proposed status of Sula Pitta are still in Near Threatened category
Burung Indonesia are currently conducting conservation actions on the island to tackle the aforementioned issues with several approach being implemented (CB-PA, awareness and education, also mainstreaming endemic biodiversity in to government policy and program.
Many thanks to everyone who has contributed to this discussion. We greatly appreciate the time and effort invested in commenting. The window for consultation is now closed and we are unable to accept any more comments until 26 June 2023. We will now analyse and interpret the new information, and we will post a preliminary decision on this species’ Red List status on this page on 26 June 2023, when discussions will re-open.
Based on available information, our preliminary proposal for the 2023 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 2 July 2023, after which the recommended categorisations will be put forward to IUCN.
The final 2023 Red List categories will be published on the BirdLife and IUCN websites in December 2023, following further checking of information relevant to the assessments by both BirdLife and IUCN.

Recommended categorisation to be put forward to IUCN
The final categorisation for this species has not changed. Sula Pitta is recommended to be listed as Least Concern.
