The endemic wildfowl of Madagascar and the Mascarene Islands: An annotated bibliography 4th Edition

The islands that comprise the Malagasy Faunal Region host ten extant, resident species of wildfowl ; all in Madagascar. A further five described and one undescribed species are extinct including all endemic species (four) from the Mascarene Islands. Madagascar today hosts the only surviving endemics: Madagascar White-backed Thalassornis leuconotus insularis, Madagascar or Bernier’s Teal bernieri, Meller’s Duck Anas melleri and Madagascar Pochard or White-eye innotata. Two sheldgeese endemic to Madagascar (Centrornis majori and Alopochen sirabensis), sheldgeese from Réunion (Alopochen (Mascarenachen) kervazoi) and (Alopochen mauritiana), a small duck, possibly a grey teal, (Anas theodori) from Mauritius and Réunion and an undescribed Aythya have become extinct since human colonisation of these islands. Anas melleri has been introduced to Réunion and Mauritius and Northern Anas platyrhynchos to Mauritius, islands within the native faunal region of the former species. A small number of migrant and vagrant wildfowl have been recorded in the region with most records from Seychelles where no resident species are known. All surviving endemic are currently threatened with extinction: A. innotata is Critical; A. bernieri, A. melleri and T. l. insularis are Endangered. Madagascar Pochard (from c.1920s-1940s and again since October 2009), Meller’s Duck and Madagascar Teal (one in 1920s and since 1993) are currently held in captivity. The endemic race of White-backed Duck is not currently held in captivity but has been in the past. In this bibliography I have attempted to include all references containing mention of the endemic wildfowl, with the exception of world lists. General works on the and regional ornithologies have been included. News media notes of the rediscovery of A. innotata (1991 and 2006), capture of A. bernieri (1993), capture of A. innotata (2009) and first captive breeding of A. bernieri (1998) have also been omitted unless they included original data and/or photographs. General accounts on the species Thalassornis leuconotus have been omitted unless including details of the Madagascan race. Where subject matter is not obvious by the title the reference has been annotated, occasionally simply with the species included. Sources are given for references not checked by me. It is intended that this bibliography will be of use in study of the endemic wildfowl of the Malagasy Region and for those involved in conservation or captive management. I would be grateful for any information concerning references omitted and of any material published after October 2014. This bibliography will continue to be updated.
