Habitat:
This species occurs mainly in primary or lightly logged lowland evergreen forests (Peh et al. 2005). It is commonest below 600 m, but occurs occasionally up to 1,200 m in montane dipterocarp forest on Borneo. It is also recorded in peatswamp forest, as well as logged areas and, occasionally, cocoa plantations.
Range:
Harpactes kasumba is confined to the Sundaic lowlands, where it is known from southernmost peninsular Thailand, Sabah, Sarawak and Peninsular Malaysia, Singapore (formerly), Kalimantan and Sumatra, Indonesia and Brunei (BirdLife International 2001).
Conservation:
Conservation Actions Underway
No targeted conservation actions are known for this species, although it occurs in a number of protected areas.
Conservation Actions Proposed
Conduct ecological studies to improve understanding of this species' habitat requirements. In particular, studies should aim to determine levels of tolerance of secondary habitats, particularly in areas where primary forests are completely removed. Repeat surveys across the range to estimate population size and trends. Improve the management of protected areas within the species' range. Increase the area of suitable habitat that has protected status. Implement measures to reduce the number and severity of forest fires.
