Abstract

The Satanic Nightjar Eurostopodus diabolicus a little-known, putatively threatened species endemic to Sulawesi, Indonesia was recently observed in two protected areas in North Sulawesi. Presently classified as Vulnerable to extinction, these new records suggest a more widespread geographical distribution and greater tolerance of disturbed habitats than was previously thought. Consequently, we recommend that this species be downgraded to Near Threatened. Descriptions of plumage characters (which differ from the type specimen in some respects), nesting, and behaviour are presented. Morphological and ecological evidence suggests E. diabolicus is most closely related to the Archbold's Nightjar E. archboldi and Papuan Nightjar E. papuensis, both endemic to New Guinea.

Abstract

This paper summarizes and reviews our knowledge of the Pale-bellied White-eye Zosterops consobrinorum of south-east Sulawesi, Indonesia. Fieldwork during late 1995 resulted in the discovery of seven new localities for the species on the Sulawesi mainland. In addition we discovered an undescribed race of Z. consobrinorum on Buton Island. These records significantly increase the known distribution of the species. Information on the species' habitat, behaviour, plumage, vocalisations, taxonomy and status is presented and it is concluded that the species is not threatened.
