Habitat
General Habitat
There is very little published information. Along the upper Anadyr River during the breeding season and early fall, this species was mostly found within larch (Larix sp.) forests, but it also would occasionally wander into the floodplain (18); presumably the floodplain was mostly populated by deciduous trees.
