Abstract

Sulawesi, the largest island of Wallacea, Indonesia, supports a rich and distinctive avifauna that includes 10 endemic genera and 41 species (White & Bruce 1986, Coates & Bishop in press). Among the least known of these endemics is Heinrich's Nightjar Eurostopodus diabolicus (Caprimulgidae) (or Diabolical and/or Satanic Nightjar in some recent literature), known previously only from the unique type (Stresemann 1931, 1940). We now report its rediscovery and field observations.

Abstract

This is the second update of the Kukila Checklist of the birds of Indonesia. The authorship of these checklist updates will be the Ornithological Society of Indonesia, or Kukila for ease of reference. The inaugural checklist was published in 1992 (Andrew 1992) and the first update appeared a year later (Andrew 1993). This second supplement is organized in the same way except that the many issues of classification that have been published since 1993 will be desk with in a separate paper that is currently in preparation. The main objective of the present paper is to present new distributional data. Most of the data are derived from published references, although a few are from submitted notes that await publication.

Abstract

During ten years (1981-1990) of birdwatching throughout the islands of Wallacea, I have accumulated a number of records which supplement and compliment information presented in White & Bruce's (1986) annotated checklist of the birds of this region and in subsequent publications. With the impending publication of a handguide to the birds of the region (Bishop & Coates in prep), it was considered important to document these observations prior to their inclusion in such a publication.

Abstract

Wallacea, after years of seeming ornithological neglect, has recently come to the fore (see White & Bruce 1986, Coates & Bishop 1997). Since about 1981 there has been an increasing number of bird watchers and expeditions to the region resulting in the rediscovery of a number of 'feared extinct' and little known species. Most of the islands or island groups have by now received at least a cursory visit during the last 17 years. As a result many species previously known only from collections have been rediscovered, and others thought to be threatened have, thankfully, been shown not to be (see Coates & Bishop 1997). One of, the few exceptions to this coverage is the Tanimbar Islands.

Abstract

Gulls (Laridae) are a familiar group of birds at temperate and subtropical latitudes in both northern and southern hemispheres. However, they are rarely encountered in the tropics, particularly those of Asia and the Pacific. It is therefore interesting to note a group of 20 Black-headed Gulls Larus ridibundus apparently over-wintering in Sorong harbour at the extreme western tip of Irian Jaya (New Guinea) in January and February 1986.

Abstract

During the preparation of The Guide to the Birds of Wallacea, and a review of the conservation and status of Wallacea's endemic birds, it became clear that reviews of little know species or species groups would perhaps aid those species' conservation by drawing attention to them. Secondly such accounts would also provide a useful resource to the growing number of field workers in this, until recently, sadly neglected region. This first account deals with three virtually unknown Tyto Owls endemic to Wallacea.
