| - | '''Status:''' | + | '''Status:''' Vulnerable. '''Global Population:''' 560,000 mature individuals and declining. Formerly one of the most abundant breeding warblers in Ohio and the Mississippi River Valleys, its population plummeted in the 1900's. Cerulean Warbler is one of the species of highest concern in the eastern United States because of a small total population size and significant declines throughout its range. The main threat is from habitat degradation and forest fragmentation as the human population increases and land uses change. Breeding habitat is degraded when mature deciduous forests, especially riparian forests, are lost and remaining forests are fragmented and isolated Also, less deciduous forests reach maturity because of shorter rotation periods and even-aged management and key tree species are lost because of disease. Winter habitat is being destroyed for the production of coffee beans and coca as the demand for coffee and illegal cocaine-based drugs grows. |

On the wintering grounds in South America the Cerulean Warbler usually is found in mixed-species foraging flocks, associating with tropical tanagers and other resident species. | On the wintering grounds in South America the Cerulean Warbler usually is found in mixed-species foraging flocks, associating with tropical tanagers and other resident species. | ||
