Revision needed

[edit]

The article has a photo of P. modestus, not P. novaeguineae. There is a photo of the latter in the external ref. cited. Which was taken in the Fly River delta of Papua New Guinea. The article gives the range as Indonesia and Australia, with no mention of Papua New Guinea, based it seems on the .de website which calls the New Guinea observation as questionable. But that site seems less than authoritative, given it only reports three observations in toto! I recall seeing these throughout the Fly-Turama-Kikori-Purari rivers delta systems of Papua New Guinea in the 1960s and again in 2000 - habitat: muddy river banks, mangroves, nipa palms. I suggest revision. Ptilinopus (talk) 01:13, 7 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
