Abstract

This report summarises findings from the first Training of Trainers (ToT) programme of the Indonesian Bird Banding Scheme (IBBS), which took place at Cikaniki Research Station (1000- 1100 m asl), Gunung Halimun-Salak National Park, during July 2009, and compares them with the results of previous banding studies conducted at the site by PPB-LIPI staff since 1996. Over the seven days from 13 to 19 July 2009, a total of 97 individuals representing 29 species were captured, and in most cases, banded. Juvenile birds belonging to 13 species comprised 28% of all individuals captured, and early primary moult was found on 32% of adults captured, suggesting that many species had recently completed breeding. The two most frequently captured species were the Little Spiderhunter Arachnothera longirostra and the Javan Fulvetta Alcippe pyrrhoptera. A comparison with previous banding studies between 1996 and 2002 at the same site shows that the latter species was repeatedly misidentified as the Fulvous-chested Jungle Flycatcher Rhinomyias olivacea, a species otherwise unknown for the park. This finding negates the conclusions of previous reports that R. olivacea is an important component of the understorey avifauna of the park at this altitude. Nine individuals, representing six species, were recaptured during the IBBS programme, including a Sunda Forktail Enicurus velatus that was at least 9 years old when re-trapped, and a Horsfield’s Babbler Malacocincla sepiaria that was at least 8.75 years old.

Abstract

We present morphometric and moult data for the Sulawesi-endemic Dark-eared Myza, based on 35 individuals captured at Lore Lindu National Park, Central Sulawesi, during March–April and July 2011. Four individuals banded in March were recaptured at the study site in July, suggesting that the population is probably sedentary. Like most meliphagids, although this species is not sexually dimorphic in plumage, measurements show that males are significantly heavier and have longer wings, tail and head–bill than females. Seven of the 16 adults in March–April and five of the 19 in July were moulting their primary feathers. Assuming that primary moult follows breeding, estimated laying dates for adults in the final stages of moult suggest breeding in December and early April, the latter corroborated by the presence of brood patches on two females in late March. A brood patch on a female in July further suggests that the breeding season is protracted. All birds photographed also showed distinct buff tips to most, if not all, secondary coverts and buff fringes to median coverts, a feature that appears to have gone unnoticed in the literature.

Abstract

The Bagan Percut region of north-eastern Sumatra, Indonesia, is becoming well known for its large concentrations of migratory shorebirds. From January to June 2011 we made monthly counts of shorebirds and waterbirds at four mudflats and one heron rookery. Fifty-one species were recorded, including 35 migratory species, and eight breeding species in the rookery. We counted 20,114 migratory shorebirds (mudflats) and 45,648 breeding waterbirds (rookery) over six months of surveys. We observed >1% of the East Asian-Australasian flyway population of five species of migratory shorebirds: Nordmann’s Greenshank Tringa guttifer (globally Endangered), Lesser Sand Plover Charadrius mongolus, Pacific Golden Plover Pluvialis fulva, Eurasian Curlew Numenius arquata, and Ruddy Turnstone Arenaria interpres. Our results support the work of others that indicate that Bagan Percut is an important habitat for wintering, migrating, and summering shorebirds. We recommend that Bagan Percut be added to the East Asian-Australasian Flyway Partnership list of internationally important wetlands because the area meets all three criteria for inclusion.

Abstract

Although the role of raptors as the top predators in the food chain is important to maintain the balance of an ecosystem, in Indonesia they have rarely been studied.This paper presents the most comprehensive study on the diversity and distribution of raptors with emphasize on Javan Hawk-eagle at Gunung Halimun National Park, the largest remnant forest in Java.The raptor study has been done by field surveys,long watches at selected observation sites and collecting information from previous reports.The results showed that there are 17 raptor species recorded in the area.Furthermore, the Crested Serpent eagle (Spilornis cheelo),Black Eagle (Ictinaetus malayensis), and Javan Hawk-eagle {Spizaetus bartelsi) were recorded in many locations.However,the Black-winged Kite {Elanus caeruleus), Brahminy Kite (Haliastur Indus), Lesser Fish-eagle (Ichthyophaga ichthyaetus),Japanese Sparrowhawk (Accipiter gularis) and the White-bellied sea-eagle (Haliaeetus leucogaster) were observed only in one location. In addition, the Javan Hawk-eagle was recorded at 14 locations namely G. Halimun Utara, G. Buligir Putih, Pasir Cangkuang, G. Malang, West Halimun, G. Bodas, G. Tumpeng, G. Citimur, G. Bengreng, G. Batu, Cadas Mahpar, G. Kempul, G. Kendeng and G. Botol.The number of observed Javan Hawk-eagle individuals at G. Botol was higher than in other locations.
