Citation Description Geographic Range [top] Range Description: Basilornis mirandus is endemic to Mindanao, Philippines, where it is common within suitable habitats, including at Daggayan, Mt Kitanglad and Mt Apo. Countries occurrence: Native: Philippines Additional data: ? Continuing decline in area of occupancy (AOO): Yes ? Extreme fluctuations in area of occupancy (AOO): No ? Estimated extent of occurrence (EOO) - km2: 9200 ? Continuing decline in extent of occurrence (EOO): Unknown ? Extreme fluctuations in extent of occurrence (EOO): No ? Continuing decline in number of locations: Unknown ? Extreme fluctuations in the number of locations: No ? Lower elevation limit (metres): 1250 Range Map: Click here to open the map viewer and explore range. Population [top] Population: The population size of this species has not been quantified, but it is described as common at some sites. Trend Justification: The population is suspected to be in decline owing to ongoing habitat destruction and fragmentation. Current Population Trend: Unknown Additional data: ? Number of mature individuals: Unknown ? Continuing decline of mature individuals: Unknown ? Extreme fluctuations: No ? Population severely fragmented: No ? Continuing decline in subpopulations: Unknown ? Extreme fluctuations in subpopulations: No ? All individuals in one subpopulation: No Habitat and Ecology [top] Habitat and Ecology: This species is found above 1,250 m in forest and forest edge, even in cut-over areas. Systems: Terrestrial Continuing decline in area, extent and/or quality of habitat: Yes Generation Length (years): 4.1 Movement patterns: Not a Migrant Threats [top] Major Threat(s): The habitats occupied by this species are apparently secure as a result of their rugged and inaccessible nature. However, some logging and clearance for agriculture may have occurred in lower parts of the elevational range. Conservation Actions [top] Conservation Actions: Conservation Actions Underway Conservation Actions Proposed Conduct repeated surveys within the range to determine current distribution and abundance, as well as assess population trends and rates of habitat loss. Conduct ecological studies to improve understanding of its precise habitat requirements, particularly tolerance of secondary habitats and response to fragmentation. Protect areas of suitable habitat, especially at lower elevations within the speciess altitudinal range, and safeguard against logging and encroachment. Citation: BirdLife International. 2016.
