Great Reed Warbler Acrocephalus arundinaceus at Bensbach - second record for Papua New Guinea

Abstract

There have been two previous records of Great Reed Warbler in the New Guinea region, one was collected in Irian Jaya in 1962, its identity being established later, and in December 1979 I saw a bird at Aroa Lagoon, Central Province.

A second Papua New Guinea record is reported here.
