Tringa brevipes breeds in north-central and north-eastern Siberia in the Putorana mountains, from the Verkhoyansk mountains and Transbaikalia east to Anadyrland, and probably in Kamchatka and the North Kuril Islands,
Russia, and winters in
Taiwan, southern
Thailand,
Malaysia and the
Philippines, through
Indonesia,
Papua New Guinea and
Solomon Islands to
Australia, with a few reaching
New Zealand,
Fiji and
Tuvalu (del Hoyo
et al. 1996). The global population was estimated to number c.44,000 individuals in 2007-2009 (Wetlands International 2014). Overall the species is suspected to be in moderately rapid decline based on regional survey data and knowledge of threats.
