The Pallas’s Grasshopper Warbler (Helopsaltes certhiola) is common over much of its central and eastern Palearctic breeding range, which extends from the middle Irtysh River, in western Siberia, east to the Sea of Okhotsk and south to eastern Kazakhstan, northern China, and the northern coast of the Sea of Japan in the Primorskiy region of Russia (Kennerley and Pearson 2010). It winters from Sri Lanka and eastern India east through much of southeast Asia, including Sumatra and Borneo. This species is also recorded nearly annually as a fall vagrant to northwestern Europe (ibid.), and it is an irregular visitor to Japan, where at least six fall records extend from September to November (OSJ 2012). Here we report the first record of the Pallas’s Grasshopper Warbler in Alaska
