Byer3 INTRODUCTION There has been a recent surge of interest in the biogeography of archipelagoes owing to a reinterpretation of classical concepts of evolution of insular populations, factors controlling numbers of species on islands, and the dynamics of inter-island dispersal. The literature on these subjects is rapidly accumulating; general reviews are presented by Mayr (1963) , and Baker and Stebbins (1965) . Carlquist (1965, 1974), Preston (1962 a, b), ~ac~rthurand Wilson (1963, 1967) , MacArthur et al. (1973) , Hamilton and Rubinoff (1963, 1967), Hamilton et al.

    8 Day Itinerary Suggestion in the BVIs, from Beef Island to Beef Island, Tortola The Virgin Islands… Lush, tropical islands indented with sugar-white beaches and surrounded by deep turquoise seas. Tranquil, get-away-from-it-all islets and bays side by side with the glamour and sophistication of some of the world’s most exclusive resorts and yacht clubs. Is it any wonder that the Caribbean has always been, and still is, one of the most popular cruising grounds in the world? The chain of Caribbean islands sweeps southwards in an arc, creating stepping-stones from Florida to Venezuela. At the northern tip are the Virgin Islands. Comprising some 60 tiny islets and cays, the British islands offer excellent sailing and a relaxed, low-key atmosphere. With short passages between them it’s easy to hop from one island to another comfortably. Here you can moor in horseshoe bays of white sand beaches dotted with palm trees. The water beneath you is so clear that you have the feeling you are literally floating on air.

  • Breeding Seabirds in the British Virgin Islands

Broderick1, Shannon Gore2, Geoff Hilton3, Nancy K. Woodfield4, Brendan J. Godley1 1Centre for Ecology and Conservation, University of Exeter, Cornwall Campus, Tremough, Penryn TR10 9EZ, UK 2BVI Conservation and Fisheries Department, PO Box 3323, Road Town, Tortola, British Virgin Islands 3Royal Society for the Protection of Birds, The Lodge, Sandy SG19 2DL, UK 4BVI National Parks Trust, PO Box 860, Road Town, Tortola, British Virgin Islands ABSTRACT: Caribbean seabirds are subject to numerous threats, and population levels are thought to be at a fraction of historical levels. Despite being a well-known taxonomic group there is still a paucity of data for most seabird species on many of the Caribbean islands. We carried out detailed surveys of the seabird breeding populations in the British Virgin Islands (BVI) during the breeding seasons of 2004 and 2005. We surveyed 42 different islands and cays over the 2 yr with 60 and 63% of these having at least one breeding seabird species in 2004 and 2005, respectively. A total of 15 spe- cies of breeding seabird was recorded, one of which, the gull-billed tern Sterna nilotica, was pre- viously thought to have been extirpated. Two species, roseate tern Sterna dougallii and magnificent frigatebird Fregata magnificens, had globally significant colonies in the BVI and a further 8 species had a regionally significant population in the BVI. We discuss our findings within a global and regional conservation context and provide recommendations for ensuring the continued existence of BVI seabird populations.
