Habitat

Range

Bhutan and north-east India

The dark-rumped swift is a swift found in Bhutan and north-east India, and a vagrant to Thailand. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest, and it is threatened by habitat loss (Wikipedia, general species account).

The cached account is very short and gives no description, measurements, diet or breeding information. SoIB 2023 treats it as a resident forest bird that eats invertebrates, rates it a High conservation priority, and gives a Restricted range of about 15,600 km², a current trend it calls inconclusive and insufficient data on the long-term trend (Wikipedia, general species account; SoIB 2023).
