MINDANAO BROADBILL Eurylaimus steerii Critical — Endangered — Vulnerable A1c; A2c; C1; C2a This species qualifies as Vulnerable because it has a small, seriously fragmented population and is declining rapidly as a result of lowland deforestation. DISTRIBUTION The Mindanao (Wattled) Broadbill or Steere’s Broadbill (see Remarks 1) is endemic to the Philippines, where it occurs in two races on four main islands: mayri on Dinagat (plus the tiny island of Poneas midway to Siargao), Siargao and Mindanao (excluding the Zamboanga Peninsula), and nominate steerii on Basilan plus the small offshore island of Malamaui, and the Zamboanga Peninsula on Mindanao. Lambert (1996) pointed out the apparent absence of records from the western part of southern Mindanao. On the other hand, the species seems very likely to occur on Bucas Grande island between Siargao and Mindanao. Records are from: ■ PHILIPPINES Dinagat Mt Kambinlio and Mt Redondo, Loreto, March and April 1972 (duPont and Rabor 1973b), with a specimen from Loreto, March 1900 (male in LACM); Plaridel, Albor, April 1972 (three specimens in DMNH); Poneas Dabo, July 1991 (two males in PNM); Siargao Vicente, Campo Nuevo, San Benito, December 1995 (BRT); Osmeña, Dapa, April 1972, and Antipolo, Numancia, May 1972 (seven specimens in AMNH, DMNH; also duPont and Rabor 1973b); Mindanao (eastern) Sibahay, Lanuza, Surigao del Sur, sea-level to 300 m, May 1963 (two specimens in USNM); Mt Hilong-hilong at Balangbalang, Cabadbaran, 150–300 m, Siwod, 900–1,200 m, and Bondo-an, 450–750 m, April and May 1963 (37 specimens in DMNH, FMNH, UPLB, USNM, ZMH); Agay near Cabadbaran, Agusan del Norte, January 1952 (Salomonsen 1953) and March 1952 (specimen in ZMC); Mt Diwata, Diatagon, Lianga, Surigao del Sur, March 1976 (BRT); Limatok, Maguinda, Agusan del Norte, at 400–600 m, November–December 1976 (Sanguila and Tabaranza 1979); Sumile at 100–500 m, November– December 1976 (Sanguila and Tabaranza 1979); Bislig at the PICOP concession, 1983 (Krupa et al. 1984) and 1992–1997 (Evans et al. 1993a, B.

  • Species Limits in Some Philippine Birds Including the Greater Flameback Chrysocolaptes Lucidus

    Species Limits in Some Philippine Birds Including the Greater Flameback Chrysocolaptes Lucidus

    FORKTAIL 27 (2011): 29–38 Species limits in some Philippine birds including the Greater Flameback Chrysocolaptes lucidus N. J. COLLAR Philippine bird taxonomy is relatively conservative and in need of re-examination. A number of well-marked subspecies were selected and subjected to a simple system of scoring (Tobias et al. 2010 Ibis 152: 724–746) that grades morphological and vocal differences between allopatric taxa (exceptional character 4, major 3, medium 2, minor 1; minimum score 7 for species status). This results in the recognition or confirmation of species status for (inverted commas where a new English name is proposed) ‘Philippine Collared Dove’ Streptopelia (bitorquatus) dusumieri, ‘Philippine Green Pigeon’ Treron (pompadora) axillaris and ‘Buru Green Pigeon’ T.

    A Preliminary Reassessment of Philippine Species-Level Bird Taxonomy

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by KU ScholarWorks Bird Conservation International (2006) 16:155–173. BirdLife International 2006 doi:10.1017/S0959270906000256 Printed in the United Kingdom Taxonomy is important in conservation: a preliminary reassessment of Philippine species-level bird taxonomy A. TOWNSEND PETERSON SummarySummarySummary Alpha taxonomy involves delineation of the basic unit of biology: the species. The concepts by which we define species, however, have been controversial, with several alternatives competing at present, some creating fewer and some more species units, depending on interpretation of species limits. Although it is tempting to assume that species concepts would have little inter- action with the geographic foci of species richness and endemism — and some have so argued — this assumption does not withstand careful analysis. In this paper, I develop a first-pass assessment of Philippine bird taxonomy under an alternative species concept, and compare the results with the traditional biological species concept lists. Differences between the two lists were dramatic, but not just in numbers of species; rather, new, previously unrecognized or previously underappreciated foci of endemism were noted. A thorough understanding of the taxonomic basis of species lists is therefore critical to conservation planning. Introduction Recent taxonomic studies have pointed out conservation implications of their results for several parts of the world (Boon et al. 2000; Lovette et al. 1999; Ortíz-Pulido et al. 2002): new viewpoints on species limits led to new priorities for conservation action, mainly via recognition of ‘new’ (although not necessarily undescribed) species-level taxa.

    The bizarre-looking Philippine Frogmouth. Check those eyes! (Dani Lopez-Velasco). ULTIMATE PHILIPPINES 14 JANUARY – 4/10/17 FEBRUARY 2017 LEADER: DANI LOPEZ-VELASCO This year´s Birdquest “Ultimate Philippines” tour comprised of the main tour and two post-tour extensions, resulting in a five-week endemics bonanza. The first three weeks focused on the better-known islands of Luzon, Palawan and Mindanao, and here we had cracking views of some of those mind-blowing, world´s must-see birds, including Philippine Eagle, Palawan Peacock-Pheasant, Wattled Broadbill and Azure- breasted Pitta, amongst many other endemics. The first extension took us to the central Visayas where exciting endemics such as the stunning Yellow-faced Flameback, the endangered Negros Striped Babbler or the recently described Cebu Hawk-Owl were seen well, and we finished with a trip to Mindoro and remote Northern Luzon, where Scarlet-collared Flowerpecker and Whiskered Pitta delighted us. 1 BirdQuest Tour Report: Ultimate Philippines www.birdquest-tours.com Our success rate with the endemics– the ones you come to the Philippines for- was overall very good, and highlights included no less than 14 species of owl recorded, including superb views of Luzon Scops Owl, 12 species of beautiful kingfishers, including Hombron´s (Blue-capped Wood) and Spotted Wood, 5 endemic racket-tails and 9 species of woodpeckers, including all 5 flamebacks. The once almost impossible Philippine Eagle-Owl showed brilliantly near Manila, odd looking Philippine and Palawan Frogmouths gave the best possible views, impressive Rufous and Writhed Hornbills (amongst 8 species of endemic hornbills) delighted us, and both Scale-feathered and Rough-crested (Red-c) Malkohas proved easy to see.
