Seychelles paradise-flycatcher  (Terpsiphone corvina)

Endemic to the Seychelles, this species was thought to remain only on the island of La Digue (2). However, recent sightings on the islands of Marianne, Praslin and Félicité need to be further investigated to discover if they represent distinct populations or merely non-viable overspill (2).

Inhabits takamaka (Calophyllum inophyllum) and badamier (Terminalia catappa) woodland, and is particularly associated with marshy areas and water bodies (4).
