Status and diet of the European Shag (Mediterranean subspecies) Phalacrocorax aristotelis desmarestii in the Libyan Sea (south Crete) during the breeding season. Marine Ornithology 45: 1–9. During 2010–2012 we collected data on the population status and ecology of the European Shag (Mediterranean subspecies) Phalacrocorax aristotelis desmarestii on Gavdos Island (south Crete), conducting boat-based surveys, nest monitoring, and diet analysis. The species’ population was estimated at 80–110 pairs, with 59% breeding success and 1.6 fledglings per successful nest. Pellet morphological and genetic analysis of otoliths and fish bones, respectively, showed that the shags’ diet consisted of 31 species. A total of 4 223 otoliths were identified to species level; 47.2% belonged to sand smelts Atherina boyeri, 14.2% to bogues Boops boops, 11.3% to picarels Spicara smaris, and 10.5% to damselfishes Chromis chromis.

    MISCELLANEOUS PUBLICATIONS MUSEUM OF ZOOLOGY, UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN, NO. 150 Systematics and Evolutionary Rela tionships Among the Herons (~rdeidae) BY ROBERT B. PAYNE and CHRISTOPHER J. RISLEY Ann Arbor MUSEUM OF ZOOLOGY, UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN August 13, 1976 MISCELLANEOUS PUBLICATIONS MUSEUM OF ZOOLOGY, UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN FRANCIS C. EVANS, EDITOR The publications of the Museum of Zoology, University of Michigan, consist of two series-the Occasional Papers and the Miscellaneous Publications. Both series were founded by Dr. Bryant Walker, Mr. Bradshaw H. Swales, and Dr. W. W. Newcomb. The Occasional Papers, publication of which was begun in 1913, serve as a medium for original studies based principally upon the collections in the Museum. They are issued separately. When a sufficient number of pages has been printed to make a volume, a title page, table of contents, and an index are supplied to libraries and individuals on the mailing list for the series. The Miscellaneous Publications, which include papers on field and museum techniques, monographic studies, and other contributions not within the scope of the Occasional Papers, are published separately. It is not intended that they be grouped into volumes. Each number has a title page and, when necessary, a table of contents. A complete list of publications on Birds, Fishes, Insects, Mammals, Mollusks, and Reptiles and Amphibians is available.

  • Government Cuts Hit Ornithological Research
    News and comment compiled by Bob Scott and Wendy Dickson Government cuts hit ornithological research ALL BTO RINGERS have received a letter from Joe Hardman, Chairman of the BTO Ringing Committee, informing them of new prices for bird rings and equipment that become effective immediately. From now on, the ring for a Mute Swan Cygnus olor will cost nearly £1.00 and that for every Willow Warbler PhyUoscopus trochilus approximately 12'Ap. These prices may be of very little immediate concern to non-ringers, but what they reflect is a quite serious and substantial reduction in funding for the BTO from the Joint Nature Conservation Committee. Funding by the JNCC has always been a major part of the financial resources available to the national ringing scheme and it reflected the importance placed by Government upon die information gathered as part of the national bird- monitoring programme. It is outrageous that these cuts have been made part way through a long- term contract and in tile middle of a financial year, when the BTO had finalised its plans for the season. This inevitably means that carefully planned work will not now be done. Obviously, there are financial restraints being placed upon the JNCC: they have also cut the monies available for seabird- monitoring, for example (just when the voluntary bodies are demonstrating how important that is). Why not contact your MP and tell him if you think it is right or wrong that the Government resources should be reduced for bird-conservation science? You could suggest that he or she should raise the matter with the Secretary of State.

  • Birds of Conservation Concern in Ireland 4: 2020–2026
    Birds of Conservation Concern in Ireland 4: 2020–2026 Gillian Gilbert1, Andrew Stanbury2 & Lesley Lewis3 1 RSPB Northern Ireland, Belvoir Park Forest, Belfast BT8 7QT 2 RSPB The Lodge, Sandy, Bedfordshire SG192DL 3 BirdWatch Ireland, Unit 20, Block D, Bullford Business Campus, Kilcoole, Greystones, Co. Wicklow, A63 RW83, Ireland Corresponding author: [email protected] Keywords: Priority, population, decline, Red list, breeding, wintering This is the fourth review of the status of birds in Ireland. Two hundred and eleven species were assessed and assigned to the Red, Amber or Green list of conservation concern. The criteria mainly follow previous assessments of conservation status at global and European levels; and within Ireland, include historical decline, trends in population and range, rarity, localised distribution and interna- tional importance. The availability of more data has allowed us to move closer towards the ideal time windows of existing criteria. Results show 23 species moving onto the Red list and only six leaving it. Twelve species are newly Red-listed due to changed European or global status. Three are Red-listed due to declines within the expanded short-term breeding time period. There is no doubt that having 54 (25.6%) of Ireland’s regularly occurring bird species now on the Red list is alarming, with some species having shown dramatic declines and losses on this island. Existing conservation concerns are reinforced, such as the further catastrophic decline of waders with six more wading bird species joining the Red list; and generalist birds of farmland, like Kestrel Falco tinnunculus now Red-listed. When grouped by habitat, upland (50%) and farmland (35%) have the highest proportions of Red-listed species.
