  • Are Predatory Birds Effective Secondary Seed Dispersers?
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Digital.CSIC Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2002, 75, 345–352. With 2 figures Are predatory birds effective secondary seed dispersers? MANUEL NOGALES*, VICENTE QUILIS, FÉLIX M. MEDINA, JUAN L. MORA and LAURA S. TRIGO Departamento de Biología Animal (Zoología), 38206 Universidad de La Laguna, Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain Received 10 June 2001; accepted for publication 2 November 2001 We have studied the unusual phenomenon of secondary seed dispersal of Lycium intricatum seeds on a small oceanic Atlantic island (Alegranza, Canarian Archipelago) in which a small frugivorous lizard (Gallotia atlantica) and two different predatory birds participate, a shrike (Lanius excubitor) and a kestrel (Falco tinnunculus). Endemic lizards that are common prey of both bird species consume Lycium fruits. Lizard remains were significantly matched with the presence of Lycium fruits in the regurgitation pellets of the two predatory birds. Seeds were found in 7.3% of the lizard droppings, 31.0% of kestrel pellets and 55.7% of shrike regurgitations. The mean number of seeds per dropping or pellet was 4.8 ± 4 in lizard, 20.2 ± 34.5 in shrike and 6.7 ± 8.1 in kestrel. The percentage of viable seeds showed significant differences among all four treatments, decreasing in the following direction: seeds collected directly from plants (98.0%), shrikes (88.0%), lizards (72.3%), and kestrels (31.7%). Seeds from Lycium fresh fruits and shrike pellets showed significantly higher germination rates than those from lizard droppings and kestrel pellets.

  • CANARY ISLANDS at the SPANISH PAVILION 30Th MAY to 5Nd JUNE
    CANARY ISLANDS AT THE SPANISH PAVILION 30th MAY to 5nd JUNE 2005 From the 30th of May until the 5th of June, the Spanish Pavilion will celebrate the CANARY ISLANDS region week. On the 4th of June, the Canary Islands will be celebrating its official day. For this special occasion the Spanish Pavilion is honoured to receive the Official Delegation from this region headed by their President Adan Martín. Spain is divided into seventeen autonomous regions, each of them with its own government. During EXPO Aichi 2005 the Spanish Pavilion will have the participation of its regional governments and autonomous cities to show Spain’s natural diversity and cultural pluralism. Each Spanish autonomic region will have the use of the Pavilion for an entire week in order to display its cultural roots as well as the most outstanding features of its land and peoples, through dance, musicians, theater, exhibitions, and an audiovisual projection in the Plaza. Spain’s regions will use this opportunity to show typical products and objects of their cuisine, customs, and craft traditions. The flag of each region will fly alongside the Spanish, Japanese and European flags over the main gate for a week. During its featured week, each region will have a special day. The Canary Islands, a paradisiac group of islands with a preferred climate and constant temperature through out the year, and splendid beaches of fine sand, consists of 7 large islands (Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura, Lanzarote, Tenerife, La Palma, Gomera, Hierro) and a few smaller ones (Alegranza, Graciosa, Montaña Clara, Roque del Este, Roque del Oeste and Lobos).

  • Allium Canariense (Amaryllidaceae), a Species Endemic to the Canary Islands
    Phytotaxa 221 (1): 001–020 ISSN 1179-3155 (print edition) www.mapress.com/phytotaxa/ PHYTOTAXA Copyright © 2015 Magnolia Press Article ISSN 1179-3163 (online edition) http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/phytotaxa.221.1.1 Allium canariense (Amaryllidaceae), a species endemic to the Canary Islands NIKOLAI FRIESEN1*, TOBIAS HERDEN1 & PETER SCHOENFELDER2 1Botanical Garden, University of Osnabrueck, Albrechtstrasse 29, 49076 Osnabrueck, Germany; e-mail: [email protected] 2Reiterweg 15a, D-93080 Pentling, Germany *author for correspondence Abstract A revision of the Allium species of the section Molium in the Canary Islands is presented. As part of the phylogenetic revi- sion of the Eurasian representatives of the subgenus Amerallium we found large disagreements in the nomenclature and taxonomy of Allium roseum in the floristic publications on the flora of the Canary Islands. At least four species of the section Molium are mentioned for the flora of the Canary Islands: Allium roseum, A. subvillosum, A. subhirsutum and A. trifoliatum. To learn more about the phylogenetic relationships within a group of closely related species of the section Molium, we used maximum parsimony and Bayesian analyses of combined nuclear (ITS—internal transcribed and ETS—external transcribed spacers of rRNA genes) and three chloroplast (rpl32-trnL and trnL-trnF intergenic spacers and rps16 intron) datasets of 7 taxa. For comparison of the relationships of A. canariense populations between the islands we used the ISSR method. We found that only one species of the section Molium occurs in the Canary Islands—the endemic species Allium canariense, closely related to Allium subvillosum. Independence of this new species has been confirmed by morphological and molecular features.

Américo Vespucio s/n, 41092 Seville, Spain Capsule The breeding foraging and post-breeding dispersal movements of five satellite-tagged Bulwer’s Petrels from the Canary Islands were recorded. Foraging trips lasted 5.6 days in average (n = 3), while the mean distance covered was 1261 km, and foraging areas were located over the continental slope and the adjacent pelagic waters, around 1200–2000 m depth and up to 350 km from the colony. After the chick- rearing period, birds dispersed southwestwards to the tropical waters of the central Atlantic. The continued improvement and deployment of remote species’ behaviour and ecology at sea are scarce (Mougin tracking systems has revolutionized the understanding of & Mougin 2000), with only isolated observations (van the distribution patterns and at sea behaviour of several Oordt & Kruijt 1953, Bourne 1995), or indirect pelagic seabird species over the last two decades (Burger information such as dietary data (Zonfrillo 1986, Martín & Shaffer 2008).
