The Reed Parrotbill (Paradoxornis heudei), a bird species endemic to East Asia, is distributed only in northeastern and eastern China, Mongolia and southeast Siberia. It is a reed-habitat specialist. The population size of this species is thought to be declining because of ongoing habitat loss and degradation in recent years, and it has been listed as Near Threatened (NT) in the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. Jiang et al. (for details see pages 214–223 in this issue) studied the effects of reclamation on bird species diversity in southern Hangzhou Bay and the Qiantang River estuary.
