| Background |
|---|
| No primary sources available at the moment. Wang & Hails (2007) cites "Ollington et al. (1999) in Wells, (in press)" (with Wells (in press) referring to the later published Wells (2007)), while Lim (2009) just states that Alfred Chia saw this bird at Serangoon Estuary, with no primary document. Conflicting information: Both sightings were at Serangoon. Wang & Hails (2007) states that singles were seen on 18 December 1993 to 1 March 1994 while Lim (2009) states that the bird was seen only on 21 December 1993. We treat these sightings as the same bird. |
