Mekong Wagtail
Mekong Wagtail (ខ្ទប់ដីមេគង្គលើ) is named after pioneering Cambodian conservationist, Sam Veasna. Rapid declines are suspected to take place in the next three generations owing to the proposed construction of a number of dams, which will almost certainly impact upon the species' specialized habitat.
