Abstract
We observed a Glossy Ibis Plegadis falcinellus on Tokashiki Island, Okinawa Prefecture, Japan, on May 6, 2014. Although this species has been observed in Japan occasionally, the Check-List of Japanese Birds (7th revised edition) has those records suspended because it is possible that those observations were of escaped individuals. This latest record provides further evidence that the species naturally occurs in Okinawa.
