The trip from the airport to Residential Pina provided an initial view of a Kestrel (Falco tinnunculus canariensis a subspecies endemic to Macaronesia Ref Note 1 *) and numbers of Pale Swift (Apus unicolour a species endemic to Macaronesia *) which was also seen again from the courtyard of the hotel. Martin provided the group with a small map of Madeira and Funchal to provide some orientation and Luis provided an overview of the tours that we would undertake over the next few days, which would include an additional optional boat trip on a ridged inflatable boat that afternoon. After a light lunch those opting for the additional boat trip walked down to the harbour. -
Portugal – Madeira 2017
Madeira 8–12 July 2017 Pelagic Extension to 15 July Participants John Thorogood Brian Roberts-Wray Emma Rees-Wray Massimiliano Dettori James and Vivienne Harvey Frederick Alway Bahar Bilgen William Dixon Robin Griffiths Leaders Catarina Correia-Fagundes and Hugo Romano Trocaz Pigeon Day 1 Most of the group arrived at Madeira’s airport around 19:30 after a 40-minutes delay on the flight schedule and our guides were waiting for us outside the baggage claim to take us to the hotel. The drive to the hotel was only five minutes and after check-in we had dinner and a nice rest after it. Day 2 We started the day visiting the most arid area in Madeira, on the eastern tip, Ponta de São Lourenço, where we watched Berthelot’s Pipits, Eurasian Kestrels and Clouded Yellow Butterflies. We only had a glimpse of two Rock Petronias flying and sitting on a rock for less than 20 seconds which did not allow everyone to have a good look at them through the telescope. Then we drove to the centre of the village of Caniçal where we looked for Spanish Sparrows and where a male displayed quite well. A male Blackcap and Eurasian Collared- doves were also observed here. After we headed to the north side of the island, to Faial, in search for the endemic Trocaz Pigeon and where we were very successful watching a few flying and others sitting on branches on open view. Lunch was taken at a restaurant with a really nice view over the green cliffs diving into the blue of the ocean and from where we saw more Eurasian Kestrels and Trocaz Pigeons flying and a Eurasian Sparrowhawk. -

AERC Wplist July 2015
AERC Western Palearctic list, July 2015 About the list: 1) The limits of the Western Palearctic region follow for convenience the limits defined in the “Birds of the Western Palearctic” (BWP) series (Oxford University Press). 2) The AERC WP list follows the systematics of Voous (1973; 1977a; 1977b) modified by the changes listed in the AERC TAC systematic recommendations published online on the AERC web site. For species not in Voous (a few introduced or accidental species) the default systematics is the IOC world bird list. 3) Only species either admitted into an "official" national list (for countries with a national avifaunistic commission or national rarities committee) or whose occurrence in the WP has been published in detail (description or photo and circumstances allowing review of the evidence, usually in a journal) have been admitted on the list. Category D species have not been admitted. 4) The information in the "remarks" column is by no mean exhaustive. It is aimed at providing some supporting information for the species whose status on the WP list is less well known than average. This is obviously a subjective criterion.

Detailed Draft Conclusions on the Representation of Animal Species from Res
Detailed draft conclusions on the representation of animal species from Res. No. 6 (1998) of the Bern Convention in proposed Emerald sites in the Republic of Moldova, the Russian Federation and Ukraine (Steppic, Alpine-Caucasus and Black Sea) Important Notes: 1. This document includes all species reported present in the countries from Emerald databases (Databases analysed: delivery May 2016) and those species which are probably present according to literature data 2. Glossary: SUF (Sufficient): the occurrence of the species/habitat type is sufficiently well covered by the current ASCIs; no further sites are required. IN MIN (Insufficient minor): no new sites are required, but this species/habitat type should be added to the list of qualifying features on one or several of sites that have already been proposed for other species/habitat types. IN MOD (Insufficient moderate): one or several additional ASCIs (or extensions of ASCIs) must be proposed to achieve a sufficient coverage of the Emerald network for this species/ habitat type (IN MOD GEO means additional site(s) are only required in a specifically named region) IN MAJ (Insufficient major): none of the sites where this species/habitat type occurs have been proposed as ASCIs so far; in order to achieve a sufficient coverage of the Emerald network for the species/habitat type, one or several of these new ASCIs must therefore be proposed. SR (Scientific reserve): further research is required to identify the most appropriate ASCIs for this species/habitat type (research on identifying the most appropriate sites, on clarifying the correspondence of a habitat present to the definition of Res. -
