| Listed in Wang & Hails (2007), reportedly observed by multiple observers, including a citation of Subaraj Rajathurai (in litt). This record was likely ignored given that it is not listed in SINAV 19:4 and Lim (2009). Moreover, the Bukit Batok record (Record Number 849) is explictly stated in SINAV 19:4 as being the "second record for Singapore". However just two months after this sighting the bird was seen again at the same site (see Record Number 849). |
