Eastern Caribbean Comment, optional Presentation form (Cf. Maps 1 et 2) Location: Department of Guadeloupe (971) Creation of the park: 20 February 1989 Heart of the park: 21,850 hectares Optimal adhesion area: 94,065 hectares 21 municipalities Adjacent sea area: 130,800 hectares Flora: 816 species recorded including 300 species of trees, 100 species of orchids and 270 species of ferns. Fauna: 33 species of birds, including the single peak sedentary Lesser Antilles, 11 species of bats, 17 species of mammals and soon the manatee, animal disappeared from Guadeloupe, which is the subject of a reintroduction project. At its inception in 1989, the territory of Guadeloupe National Park consisted of a central area of 17 300 ha in the forest of Basse-Terre and a peripheral zone called the three municipalities of Pointe-Noire, Bouillante and Vieux-Habitants. Decree of 3 June 2009, translation of the 2006 reform, the geography has changed: the "new" National Park now covers potentially twenty-one (21) municipalities, more than half of the department. There are three entities: Zone "core" consists of: 1. 17 300 ha in the forest of the low-Earth 2. 3200 ha in Grand Cul-de-Sac marin (former Nature Reserve) 3. Kahouanne of islets and head-to-English 4. parts of terrestrial and marine Ilets Pigeon (Boiling) Areas "core of the park" are protected because of their exceptional biodiversity. These are the only areas to which special rules apply whose goal is the conservation of biodiversity, landscapes and generally of natural and cultural heritage, the "character" of the core. Human activities are supervised to prevent environmental degradation or species. Area optimal adhesion to twenty-one (21) municipalities: sixteen (16) municipalities in the Basse-Terre and five (5) common Grande-Terre located around the Grand Cul-de-Sac sailor. This area is not subject to any special regulations in the park. Maritime area adjacent equivalent sea area accession. It remains under the jurisdiction of the Maritime Prefect, but the National Park can develop projects with marine stakeholders (fishermen, boaters, etc.).. This area is not subject to any special regulations in the park. Municipalities who sign the charter form a reinforced partnership area, where local players can develop projects in cooperation with the teams of the National Park. Chapter 2. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Present briefly the proposed area and its principal characteristics, and specify the objectives that motivated its creation : Historically focused on the forest of Basse-Terre, and 3 municipalities classified as "peripheral area," National Park of Guadeloupe for since the Decree of 3 June 2009, a potential territory of 21 municipalities of the 32 that make up the archipelago. National Park of Guadeloupe is a French protected area very diverse: the 10 geographically distinct areas classified as core are representative of virtually all ecosystems in the Caribbean. These areas constitute a natural heritage of world-renowned international territory enjoying deux labels: World Biosphere Reserve (within the meaning of the program on Man and the Biosphere-MAB-UNESCO), which corresponds to the extension of the National Park convention area on Wetlands of International Importance especially as Waterfowl Habitat (Ramsar area). Terrestrial or aquatic, the 10 cores are distributed over the continental Guadeloupe: – The core of the bay of Grand Cul-de-Sac Marin include islet Fajou (1565 ha), the largest islet in the lagoon, mangroves and marshes Choisy and Lambis (966 ha), Christophe islets (19 ha ) Carénage (123 ha) and Biche (24 ha) and the estuary of the Grande Rivière Goyave (1171 ha), the largest rivers of Guadeloupe; – Kahouanne (19.55 ha) and Tête à l'Anglais islets (1.36 ha), only part of their land, halfway between cores Park Grand Cul-de-Sac Marine and Pigeon Islands ; – The forest of Basse-Terre, "historic" core of the National Park of Guadeloupe with 11 municipalities and 17 300 ha over the entire upper part of the mountain; – Pigeon islets, particularly coral reefs that surround major component of marine natural heritage of Guadeloupe subjected to strong pressure from tourism. The core space classified in 2009 National Park includes the terrestrial part of the two islets covering an area of 8 ha and a marine area and coastal device 981 ha. The area optimal membership includes 21 communes of Guadeloupe (see Map 2) which will be offered to join the charter to implement the project area. Defined in a logic of solidarity with green hearts, the optimal membership area includes: – All common Basse-Terre, in continuity with the core of the forest canopy but also by rivers flowing from the heights of the mountains. The core of Pigeon Islands marine is also heavily dependent on activities taking place on land, in the communes of the Côte-sous-le-Vent; – All municipalities in the Bay of Grand Cul-de-Sac Marin, Deshaies to Anse-Bertrand, the space surrounding areas including marine cores. Most of the territory of these municipalities is directly related to the core, particularly through the watersheds of rivers, and human activities carried on in the Grand Cul de Sac. Only were excluded from the territory cadastral sections most urbanized and furnished in the towns of Baie-Mahault and Abymes. The set of marine and terrestrial parts of islets classified, the core of the national park is included in a large area adjacent sea. It covers the entire north of the Bay of Grand Cul de Sac sailor from the Pointe de la Grande Vigie to northern Basse Terre (with points at the 100 m isobath incorporating biological zoning) and extends to the west to the limits of territorial waters in order to take into account seamounts conducive to cetaceans. Its southern boundary is located to the right of the lighthouse at Anse à la Barque, south of the heart of Pigeon Islands. Since 2010 all exclusive economic zones are part of AGOA sanctuary for marine mammals. Explain why the proposed area should be proposed for inclusion in the SPAW list National Park of Guadeloupe from his natural spaces an important part of his character that is based on both material elements, including a rich volcanic, biological, landscape and cultural objectively describes specific but fragile and on intangibles, including a healing ability. With its "High Madam" which culminates at 1467 m, the highest point of the Lesser Antilles, Guadeloupe National Park dominates the northern archipelago born from the meeting of American and Caribbean plates behind the active volcanism the island of Basse Terre: the dome of the Soufrière was implemented during the last magmatic eruption of 1530 (since he broke the rhythm of phreatic eruptions, most recently in 1976). Between this and the neighboring volcanic island of Grande Terre limestone, the bay of Grand Cul-de-Sac Marin is crossed by the largest barrier reef in the Lesser Antilles. It integrates its furniture hard money or a mosaic of habitats marine reefs and seagrass beds and a coastline protected by mangrove and swamp forest: in for shelter and food sources for juveniles of many species of invertebrates fish and their ecological role is considerable. Turtles and conch are among the iconic species of the bay. Coral reefs, endemism is related to their former isolation of the tropical Indo-Pacific region, this structure marine environment. Pigeon islets include a site renowned for the remarkable formations that range from a few meters to over 40 m depth: global change and anthropogenic assault causing significant degradation of this wonderful submarine garden since the late 80s.

The new discoveries in the Grand Cul-de-Sac Marin are of a completely different nature. Following reports in 2012, surveys were organized: a sample of 160 lithic pieces scattered on the seabed between 2.50 m and 4 m deep was taken more than 1 km offshore. It is macrolithic tools in andesite. The most spectacular are axes blades and abrasive tools such as grinding stones, grinders, mortars and circular polishers. There are also elongated pebbles bearing percussion marks attesting to their use as hammers. The status of this vast deposit is still undetermined.

JACKSON1* & Bette J. S. JACKSON2 Received: May 03, 2016 – Accepted: June 10, 2016 Jerome A. Jackson & Bette J. S. Jackson 2016. Dynamics of Woodpecker – Common Starling interactions: a comparison of Old World and New World species and populations. – Ornis Hun- garica 24(1): 1–41. Abstract Woodpecker species whose cavities are most usurped by Common Starlings (Sturnus vulgaris) are widespread and generalists in their use of habitats. These include primarily woodpeckers that are similar in size to or slightly larger than the starling – such as the Great-spotted Woodpecker (Dendrocopos major) of Eurasia and the Northern Flicker (Colaptes auratus) and Red-bellied (Melanerpes carolinus) and Red-headed (M. erythrocephalus) Woodpeckers of North America. Usurpation occurs primarily in human-dominated urban, suburban and exurban habitats with pastures, sports fields and other open areas that serve as prime feeding habi­ tats for starlings. Starlings prefer high, more exposed cavities with a minimal entrance diameter relative to their body size. Usurpation success depends on timing – optimally just as a cavity is completed and before egg-lay- ing by the woodpeckers. Starlings likely reduce woodpecker populations in more open, human-dominated habi- tats. Woodpecker habitat losses and fragmentation are more serious problems that enhance habitat quality for star- lings and reduce habitat quality for most woodpeckers. The only woodpeckers that might become in danger of extinction as a primary result of starling cavity usurpation are likely island species with small populations.

    Adaptations of An Avian Supertramp: Distribution, Ecology, and Life History of the Pearly-Eyed Thrasher (Margarops fuscatus) Chapter 6: Survival and Dispersal The pearly-eyed thrasher has a wide geographical distribution, obtains regional and local abundance, and undergoes morphological plasticity on islands, especially at different elevations. It readily adapts to diverse habitats in noncompetitive situations. Its status as an avian supertramp becomes even more evident when one considers its proficiency in dispersing to and colonizing small, often sparsely The pearly-eye is a inhabited islands and disturbed habitats. long-lived species, Although rare in nature, an additional attribute of a supertramp would be a even for a tropical protracted lifetime once colonists become established. The pearly-eye possesses passerine. such an attribute. It is a long-lived species, even for a tropical passerine. This chapter treats adult thrasher survival, longevity, short- and long-range natal dispersal of the young, including the intrinsic and extrinsic characteristics of natal dispersers, and a comparison of the field techniques used in monitoring the spatiotemporal aspects of dispersal, e.g., observations, biotelemetry, and banding. Rounding out the chapter are some of the inherent and ecological factors influencing immature thrashers’ survival and dispersal, e.g., preferred habitat, diet, season, ectoparasites, and the effects of two major hurricanes, which resulted in food shortages following both disturbances. Annual Survival Rates (Rain-Forest Population) In the early 1990s, the tenet that tropical birds survive much longer than their north temperate counterparts, many of which are migratory, came into question (Karr et al. 1990). Whether or not the dogma can survive, however, awaits further empirical evidence from additional studies.
