Justification

Although this species may have a restricted range, it is not believed to approach the thresholds for Vulnerable under the range size criterion (Extent of Occurrence <20,000 km2 combined with a declining or fluctuating range size, habitat extent/quality, or population size and a small number of locations or severe fragmentation). Despite the fact that the population trend appears to be decreasing, the decline is not believed to be sufficiently rapid to approach the thresholds for Vulnerable under the population trend criterion (>30% decline over ten years or three generations). The population size has not been quantified, but it is not believed to approach the thresholds for Vulnerable under the population size criterion (<10,000 mature individuals with a continuing decline estimated to be >10% in ten years or three generations, or with a specified population structure). For these reasons the species is evaluated as Least Concern.

Largely insectivorous; some fruit, small molluscs and crustaceans may be taken. Tends to keep to middle and low levels in dense vegetation; forages at 1 – 24 m on Karkar and Bagabag I. Forages also along line of rising tide where water disturbs prey, often on bare mud. Very active, with much calling, also much tail-flicking and wing-flicking to disturb prey. Catches arthropods by hovering, gleaning and flycatching from leaves, palm fronds and grasses. Inquisitive; tail often flicked, waved or elevated, and crest raised.
