Scaly-breasted Munias recorded
per party hr on the Honolulu Christmas Count, 1944-2014 (see Count
Page), showing significantly declining
populations, perhaps related to increased competition from other Estrilids See also Moulton and Scioli
(1986), Williams (1987), and Ralph (1990). Graphs of Christmas Count data developed as part
of The Birds of the Hawaiian Islands: Occurrence, History, Distribution, and
Status by Robert L. Pyle and Peter Pyle http://hbs.bishopmuseum.org/birds/rlp-monograph/
