| Remarks : | I hope more people will be made aware that the Black Shama is only found in the island of Cebu, Philippines and is struggling to survive in the remaining forest habitat of the Tabunan Forest. The unabated clearing of its remaining forest habitat has significantly reduced its population. - RBP |
