Recovery Plan for the Nightingale Reed Warbler, Acrocephalus luscinia	F	1	Pacific Islands Fish and Wildlife Office (808) 792-9400	Nightingale reed warbler (old world warbler)	Acrocephalus luscinia	1	111	Monitor Saipan population and assess threats	Ongoing Not Current	FY 1995 - FY 1999		Other	Division of Fish and Wildlife, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, U.S. Geological Survey, Biological Resources Division, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service	Research: Population Assessment, Research: Population Surveys, Research: Other Information	Volunteer, Species Expert, Contract, Internal Technical Assistance, Internal Field Assistance	Threats previously assessed. Saipan island-wide surveys completed in 2007. Those surveys indicate decline. Threats still include habitat loss as well as alien predators (especailly rats and cats).

Population estimate similar to 2000 estimate, though slightly lower. Threats previously assessed, however, time on island allowed additional assessment. Feral ungulates are altering the habitat and this will eventually negatively impact the species if not already doing so.
Recovery Plan for the Nightingale Reed Warbler, Acrocephalus luscinia	F	1	Pacific Islands Fish and Wildlife Office (808) 792-9400	Nightingale reed warbler (old world warbler)	Acrocephalus luscinia	1	113	Monitor Aguiguan population and assess threats	Ongoing Not Current	Prior to FY 1995		Other	Division of Fish and Wildlife, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, U.S. Department of Defense, U.S. Geological Survey, Biological Resources Division, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service	Research: Population Assessment, Research: Population Surveys, Research: Habitat Status, Research: Predation, Research: Other Information	Volunteer, Graduate Student, Species Expert, Internal Technical Assistance, Internal Field Assistance	Island-wide surveys conducted in 2008. No nightingale reed-warblers observed or heard. Nightingale reed-warbler very probably extirpated from Aguiguan. Threats previously assessed. Additional time on island during surveys allowed additional assessment. Feral goats drastically altering habitat and will negatively affect ability to reintroduce the species to Aguiguan in future.
