Status Resident or austral migrant? Widespread austral migrant to southern New Guinea. Just two records from the Padaido Islands in the south-east of the study area: an undated record in Mayr (1941) , and one heard on Owi on 13 January 1994 ( P. Gregory in litt . 2000). The date of the latter record suggests it was more likely to have been resident E. o. rufiventer rather than the austral migrant E. o. subcyanocephalus which should be in Australia at this season.
