Pre-Incursion Plan PIP001 Birds 4 Table 1: Introduction Two pathways contribute to the vast majority of introductions of invasive bird species to Australia - intentional introduction via the pet trade (64% of global bird introductions) and intentional release of birds as game animals (33%). The species listed in this pre-plan are most commonly represented in the pet trade pathway (having escaped or been released from captivity) and include members of the Psittacidae (cockatoos and parrots), Fringillidae (canary and finch), Emberizidae (bunting), Estildidae (munia and sparrow), Pyconotidae (bulbuls), Struthionidae (ostriches) and Columbidae (doves). Members from each of these groups are widely kept in throughout Victoria and represent a risk of being released/escape or have been declared under the Catchment and Land Protection (CaLP) Act 1994. Worldwide, releases of invasive birds to be hunted as game species is generally confined to species from the Odontophoridae (quail), Phasianidae (turkey, grouse, pheasants and partridges) and Anatidae (ducks, geese and swan) families (Lever, 2005). Many of these species are also widely kept throughout Victoria. General factors that may increase the success of a newly introduced population of birds establishing in the wild include propagule size, being a habitat generalist, ability to produce a large clutch size, nest site selection and small body size. The potential consequences of establishment of many of these species are wide ranging and may include the introduction of new diseases and parasites, competition with native species for food and nesting resources, damage to infrastructure (deposition of excrement, damage to overhead wires and blocking gutters with nesting materials) and damage to agriculture through destruction of crops and orchards. Generally speaking, the non-cryptic natures of most bird species (bright plumage, vocal in nature and non-sedentary) enable them to be easily detected and identified. Bird watching is also an increasingly popular pastime in Australia– another factor leading to a high likelihood that, during the early stage of establishment in the wild, new populations are readily identified and can then be successfully eradicated. Table 2: Declaration Status in Victoria There have been at least 20 species of birds that have successfully established of the 54 species that have been known to been introduced into Australia (Bomford 2008). There are currently 19 species of birds declared pest animals under the CaLP Act 1994 within Victoria. See species specific table for details. The Exotic Bird Keeping Scheme and CITES lists should be checked before any invasive bird species, other than those listed in this document, are destroyed. Pre-Incursion Plan PIP001 Birds 5 Table

  • Three Species of Exotic Passerine in Venezuela
    COTINGA 7 Three species of exotic passerine in Venezuela Chris Sharpe, David Ascanio and Robin Restall Se presentan registros de tres especies exóticas de Passeriformes, sin previos registros en Ven­ ezuela. Lonchura malacca fue encontrado en junio de 1996 en Guacara, cerca de Valencia: hay evidencia anecdótica que sugiere que la especie ha colonizado algunas áreas de los Llanos. Lonchura oryzivora, una popular ave de jaula, parece estar bien establecida en áreas al oeste y norte del país, p.e. en Caricuao y Maracay. Passer domesticus fue encontrado en el puerto La Guaira en agosto-septiembre de 1996, donde parece estar nidificando. Se está tramitando una licencia para exterminar la especie en Venezuela. Introduction lation in the Caricuao area appears to have been Three new species of exotic passerine have appar­ established for a number of years, as do others near ently become established in northern Venezuela, Maracay (M. Lentino pers. comm. 1996). Specimens each of them representing new documented records for the cage-bird trade apparently come from for the country. Acarigua, a major area for rice cultivation (RR). The species is native to Java and Bali in South- East Asia, with introduced populations in many parts of the world including Florida, USA, and Puerto Rico. It is apparently only able to maintain stable populations where rice is plentiful1, such as the Acarigua–Barinas area, although the true na­ ture of its ecological requirements in Venezuela is unknown.

In Europe, it spread from Turkey and the Balkans colonizing almost every country in Western Europe in a matter of 30 years, becoming viable breeders within two years of invasion. Believed introduced to the West Indies by accidental release of a pet trader in 1974, Eurasian collared-doves have spread throughout the Caribbean. In the early 1980's they invaded Florida and quickly established localities throughout the southeastern United States. Researchers cite factors such as genetic mutation, keen adaptation to human-dominated environments, and high reproductive potential as possible explanations for their abundant range expansion. Negative impacts include competition with endemic birds and potential disease transmission. view this species on IUCN Red List Global Invasive Species Database (GISD) 2021.

[email protected], [email protected] RESUMEN Estudiamos la alimentación del Capuchino de Cabeza Negra (Lonchura malacca), una especie originaria de Sri Lanka y el sureste de India que ha logrado establecer una población en Colombia. Analizamos 25 estómagos de aves capturadas en febrero 2007 para conocer el espectro trófico, el tamaño de los alimentos y el ritmo de actividad alimentaria en horas de la mañana. Encontramos que la especie tiene una dieta vegetal de tipo granívora integrada por diez ítems: nueve vegetales incluyendo a semillas de arroz (Oryza sativa), pasto india (Panicum maximum), sorgo (Sorghum bicolor) y cuatro especies no identificadas, además de restos de panículas de gramíneas, restos vegetales no identificados y un ítem no orgánico correspondiente a piedras. La dieta principal estuvo representada por arroz, restos vegetales no identificados y semillas de pasto india; los otros grupos constituyen categorías secundarias de alimento. La intensidad de actividad alimentaria en horas de la mañana aumentó hasta las 08:00 y decreció después. El arroz fue la gramínea de mayor consumo en términos de masa y frecuencia de presencia en las muestras, debido principalmente a su gran disponibilidad en la zona durante la mayor parte del año; esta alta oferta, sumada a la capacidad de dispersión de L.
