Description
Kloss's leaf warbler (Phylloscopus ogilviegranti) is a leaf warbler found in Cambodia, China, Laos, Thailand, and Vietnam. Its natural habitats are temperate forests, subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, and subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. Kloss's leaf warbler was formerly considered as a subspecies of Davison's leaf warbler. It was promoted to species status based on evidence from both molecular genetic and vocalization studies.
Feeding Habits
Kloss's Leaf Warbler mostly consumes small invertebrates, foraging alone or in groups through various forest layers but favoring the canopy. Exhibiting agility, they glean from foliage and capture prey mid-air. Distinctively, kloss's Leaf Warbler flicks wings when excited.
Habitat
Kloss's Leaf Warbler typically resides in mixed forests, which include broadleaf evergreen forests. These areas are characterized by a variety of tree species, with an environment that supports a diverse ecosystem year-round. They often inhabit these mixed woodlands at varying altitudes, specifically within a mid-range mountainous belt, and utilize similar habitats at lower altitudes during the non-breeding season.
