(ILLUSTRATION: DAVE SHOWLER) GENERAL INTRODUCTION are endemic and 53 are introduced. It is mostly composed of grasses Agrostis magellanica, Poa cooki, P. annua, mosses and lichens, The Terres Australes Françaises or French Southern Territories are together with several herbaceous species (notably Acaena composed of three sets of islands in the southern Indian Ocean— magellanica, Azorella selago and Pringlea antiscorbutica). Plant Crozet, Kerguelen, and Saint Paul and Amsterdam—with a total cover is significant only in coastal areas at low altitude; above 200 m, area of 760,000 ha. These islands are very isolated and lie at least vascular plants are rare and bare rock dominates the landscape. 2,500 km away from the closest continental shores of Australia, The greatest numbers of birds are found on Île de l’Est, Îles des southern Africa and Antarctica. The nearest islands to the French Apôtres and Îles des Pingouins, where cats and rats are absent. On Southern Territories are Heard Island, 480 km south-east of the Îles Île des Cochons and Île de la Possession where, respectively, cats Kerguelen, and Prince Edward and Marion Islands, 1,000 km west and rats are present, the smaller seabird species, particularly petrels, of the Îles Crozet. There is no permanent human population on these have either been eliminated or are greatly reduced in numbers. islands, but three have stations which house expeditions of 30 to 80 Numbers of albatrosses and penguins nevertheless remain high.

Seabird Tracking Data – Gap Analysis Maria Dias, Ben Lascelles, Cleo Small and Richard Phillips
PaCSWG2 Doc 03 Rev 1 Agenda Item 7.2 Second Meeting of the Population and Conservation Status Working Group Punta del Este, Uruguay, 8 -9 September 2014 Seabird Tracking Data – Gap Analysis Maria Dias, Ben Lascelles, Cleo Small and Richard Phillips SUMMARY Since its creation in 2004, the BirdLife International managed Seabird Tracking Database Tracking Ocean Wanderers (TOW) has been a central repository for tracking data collected by researchers all over the world. It now houses data for all ACAP species, and includes data collected from 89 colonies covering a range of life-history stages. In addition, in recent years, some new studies have published data that have not yet been deposited in the TOW database, and some others are currently ongoing. Giving the relevance of the TOW dataset for seabird conservation, it is imperative to monitor the data already gathered and the new data being collected, particularly from colonies that have never been tracked before and/or for less well studied life-history stages (e.g. – at sea movements of young birds). BirdLife International has now compiled and summarized all the available information on tracking studies undertaken on ACAP listed species into a single metadata table (Seabird Tracking Metadata). This will be regularly updated in order to assess where major gaps in knowledge of the at sea distribution of these species occur, thus helping set future study priorities. A first assessment of such gaps is presented in this paper. RECOMMENDATIONS The value of the Tracking Ocean Wanderers database as a tool for seabird conservation relies largely on the continuous collaboration from the seabird ecologists’ community, so we recommend the working group to: 1.

EMMANUEL MILOT DISPERSION ET GÉNÉTIQUE CHEZ UN OISEAU MARIN LONGÉVIF : L’ALBATROS HURLEUR Dynamique de population, structure et diversité génétiques, consanguinité Thèse présentée à la Faculté des études supérieures de l’Université Laval dans le cadre du programme de doctorat en biologie pour l’obtention du grade de Philosophiae Doctor (Ph. D.) DÉPARTEMENT DE BIOLOGIE FACULTÉ DES SCIENCES ET GÉNIE UNIVERSITÉ LAVAL QUÉBEC 2009 © Emmanuel Milot, 2009 Pointe Basse, Crozet, janvier 2004 Résumé L’impact écologique et évolutif de la dispersion et de la consanguinité peut être exacerbé chez les espèces insulaires. Les albatros, en particulier, ont un mode de vie exceptionnel qui soulève plusieurs questions à cet égard. Dans cette thèse j’aborde certaines de ces questions. En introduction (chapitre 1), j’énonce des hypothèses spécifiques à l’espèce d’étude, l’Albatros hurleur (Diomedea exulans), en lien avec la dispersion, la dynamique des populations, et la génétique. Cependant, la découverte fortuite d’une diversité génétique très pauvre chez cette espèce a nécessité une redéfinition majeure des objectifs et hypothèses initiaux de la thèse. Donc, les patrons de diversité génétique chez deux espèces « sœurs », les Albatros hurleurs et d’Amsterdam (D. amsterdamensis), sont d’abord étudiés au chapitre 2. Des simulations supportent l’hypothèse voulant que ces deux espèces aient hérité leur faible diversité de leur ancêtre commun qui vivait il y a quelque 0,8 million d’années. Par conséquent, les albatros semblent défier l’opinion répandue voulant qu’une faible diversité génétique réduit nécessairement la viabilité d’une espèce. L’objectif du chapitre 3 était d’identifier explicitement le modèle de dynamique populationnelle correspondant le mieux à la réalité des Albatros hurleurs.

Waugh - New Zealand AC2 Doc 12 Agenda Item No 10.1 Report of the Breeding Sites Working Group 23 May 2006 Summary ¾ The Breeding Sites Working Group (BSWG) was successful in engaging with ACAP Parties on the compilation of data on the breeding sites of ACAP species and their management of threats. The BSWG compiled data on over one half of the identified ACAP species breeding sites, with data submissions from six Parties or Range States, at 168 species-colony records and for 19 species. ¾ The data submitted have allowed testing of the database structure and data entry mechanisms, with some minor revisions required to streamline data entry. ¾ The BSWG was active in providing views to allow ongoing improvement of the database and data-entry interface. ¾ Outstanding data will be sought from Parties who have only partially submitted data or have yet to commence data submission to the database. ¾ The database appears to provide a useful tool to enable a qualitative analysis of threats to ACAP species and management of sites and threats at breeding sites. ¾ The Terms of Reference for the Working Group, developed from Draft Terms of Reference accepted by the Advisory Committee at AC1, together with a work program, are recommended to the Committee for endorsement. Contents 1. Introduction 2. Terms of Reference 3. Working Group membership 4. Report back against the Work Programme 5.
