Beyond Sulawesi
BEYOND SULAWESI 7 NOVEMBER – 2 DECEMBER 2011 TOUR REPORT LEADERS: MARK VAN BEIRS and CRAIG ROBSON This was the first ever organized bird tour to these little-known specks of land situated between mainland Sulawesi and the Moluccas, just to the west of Weber’s zoogeographical Line. We visited the little known island groups of Talaud, Banggai, Sula, the Togians and Sangihe and came away with excellent views of the majority of the extant endemics. The logistics went unexpectedly smooth and although we had to work quite hard at times to get to the habitat of some of the specialities, we got rewarded with some exceptional observations of some of the least known and rarest species on the planet. The bird of the trip was the modestly-clad Sangihe Shrike-Thrush, not only because we will long remember the long hike on steep, slippery trails to get to its beautiful, montane forest habitat, but mainly because of the terrific views we had of this extremely rare species. Other mega highlights included the cute Sangihe Scops Owl, the remarkable Togian Boobook, the seriously weird Banggai Crow, the smart Bare-eyed Myna, the terrific Helmeted Myna and the unpretentious Sula Scrubfowl. We recorded 205 species on our travels. Mammals were not very obvious but both the Peleng and Sangihe Tarsiers conquered our hearts with their enormous eyes. Other interesting animals included Peleng Cuscus, Sulawesi Crested Macaque and Short-finned Pilot Whale. The group convened at our hotel outside Manado, the capital of the weird-shaped island of Sulawesi. In the afternoon we explored the beautiful gardens and started the list with beauties like Barred Rail, Black-billed Koel, Black-fronted White-eye and Chestnut and Scaly-breasted Munias. -

The Conservation Status of Key Bird Species on Taliabu and the Sula Islands, Indonesia PETER DAVIDSON, TONY STONES and ROB LUCKING
Bird Conservation International (1995) 5:1-20 The conservation status of key bird species on Taliabu and the Sula Islands, Indonesia PETER DAVIDSON, TONY STONES and ROB LUCKING Summary Ornithological surveys were conducted over a seven-week period on Taliabu, Sula Islands, Indonesia in 1991, concentrating on eight species (seven of which have restricted ranges) considered (in 1991) to be threatened and six species (two of which have restricted ranges) considered near-threatened. All of the restricted-range species are dependent on lowland forest, although most persist in secondary habitats, and some also occur in montane forest. Tyto nigrobrunnea was recorded for the first time since the type-specimen was collected in 1938, and is perhaps the most threatened of all the restricted-range birds. Megapodius bernsteinii, Pitta dohertyi, Rhinomyias colonus, Basilornis galeatus and Streptocitta albertinae are threatened in the longer term, primarily by habitat loss. Both Coracina schistacea and C. sula are able to persist in all but the most degraded of habitats. Of the two restricted-range species considered near-threatened, Zoothera erythronota is at greatest risk on Taliabu, apparently restricted to lowland forests. The other, Ptilinopus subgularis, is common in lowland forest and also occurs in montane forest. Little primary lowland forest was found in the areas visited on the island, and identifying remaining areas of this forest type and its relative importance to the birds, especially restricted-range species, should be given highest priority in further surveys. The suitability of a proposed reserve area on the island was evaluated: a larger area of lowland forest than is currently proposed should be afforded protection in order to safeguard the island's characteristic avifauna. -
Bird Species New to Science from Southeast Asia (1997 – 2007)
Bird species new to science from Southeast Asia (1997 – 2007) Yong Ding Li A Brief Overview Southeast Asia is one of Earth’s least studied, yet among its richest and most diverse region in terms of total biodiversity and species endemism. Virtually all of political Southeast Asia within the Oriental zoogeographic region, excluding Indonesia’s West Papua overlaps into four of Earth’s 34 known biodiversity hotspot units, namely Sundaland, Wallacea, Philippines and Indo-Burma. (Above) Large expanses of montane evergreen forests in central Sundaland, of which Singapore Sulawesi might harbor undescribed bird species. (Yong Ding Li) forms a part of together with Sumatra, Borneo, Java and Peninsular Malaysia, on is own is already incredibly speciose, with an estimated vascular plant diversity of about 25 000 species. The estimated bird diversity of all Southeast Asia runs into over 1500 species, with a large proportion endemic. Indonesia by her own already has over 400 species of endemic birds, approximately a quarter of her known avifauna and the highest absolute bird endemism in the world. Each year, perhaps each month would be more apt, sees the discovery of a few new species of organisms, often an obscure beetle, fly, crab or some arthropod species but also an occasional vertebrate. As far as larger vertebrates are concerned, new species to science are far and few, but are often exciting and captures more media attention than their smaller ‘bug’ counterparts. Take for example the media hype that was generated by the recent discovery of the Giant Peccary in South America, versus the tens of dozens of new flies species described from Singapore! In the last ten or so years, 16 bird species new to science in our region have been described, averaging about one to two birds species per year as biologists continue to scour all but the remotest regions in Southeast Asia. -

In the remaining 11 territories in the Asia region, initial (IBAs) in the 28 countries and territories in the Asia region1 (Figure lists of IBAs have been prepared in lieu of inventories.

The proportion of Asia’s land area territories, however, because of the need to involve local experts in within the IBA network is comparable to that of other regions of IBA identification and build national and local-level constituencies the world where IBA analyses have been undertaken: Africa (7%); for IBA conservation. Europe (7%)2 ; and the Middle East (5%). The number of IBAs identified per territory varies from one in The network of IBAs documented in Asia to date does not yet each of Macao and the Maldives to 465 in India, while the total represent a fully comprehensive list of sites of international area of the IBA network in each territory ranges from 1 km2 in Macao importance for bird conservation in the region.
