PAPUAN DWARF KINGFISHER Ceyx solitarius View in CoL #

Range Supiori, Yapen.

Status Resident. Known only from a single male collected by Beccari at Korrido, 18 May 1875 ( Salvadori 1880 ‒82) and an observation by Ripley in November–December 1937 ( Mayr & Meyer de Schauensee 1939). There appear to be no records of the species on Biak itself, or any modern records from Supiori.
