Abstract

The Tawny-breasted Parrofinch Erythrura hyperythra was described for the first time by Reichenbach in 1862 from a specimen erroneously thought to have been collected in New Guinea. Vordeman (1883) described a second specimen collected in west Java. The parrotfinch has since been reported from Bast Java, Lombok, Sumbawa, Flores, Sulawesi, West and East Malaysia, Luzon and Mindoro. However, because of its rarity and secretive behaviour, very little is known of the bird in nature (but see Burkard, 1982).

Abstract

In the introduction to his Annotated checklist of the birds of Borneo, Smythies (1957) outlines the history of ornithological study on the island. A notable lack of field studies in Kalimantan (Indonesian Borneo) is apparent over the past fifty years. In the previous century, there had been some two dozen individuals collecting or studying, especially in the Banjarmasin area, but faunal studies virtually ceased after the outbreak of the Second World War. Pfeffer (1960-1961) took part in a French expedition to East Kalimantan, and Pearson (1975) published a brief list of birds in the Kutai reserve, the site of a field research station until it was destroyed by fire in 1983. Their data, and some unpublished records of a few others in the 1970's (J. T. Marshall, K. V. Thompson) are incorporated into the third edition of Smythies' The Birds of Borneo (1981). The purpose of the present paper is to publish notes on Kalimantan birds to cover the period from those included in the latest edition of Smythies' work up to the present time, and thus to update the record in expectation of an increase in ornithological activity in the near future. There has been very little further study, and in acknowledgement to Smythies' third edition, the Earl of Cranbook writes: “I regret only that the book still retains such a strongly northern and north-western bias. The four provinces of Kalimantan encompass the greater part of the island of Borneo. Up-to-date ornithological knowledge of this area is sadly deficient, perhaps this edition will find its way into Indonesia and stimulate interest and comment”. The present paper contributes a little to redress this imbalance.

Abstract

For few species of birds are the full range of songs and calls known, and in Indonesia little has been published concerning individual song Motives and full repertoires of forest birds, even. though these may differ from published accounts based on mainland Asian individuals (or races). Field identification of Indonesian birds based on vocalizations described in current field guides may for this reason be difficult or even impossible. In this note variations in the full adult song of the male White-chested Babbler Trichastoma rostratum are described, as well as the call of the female bird. Tracings of the original sonograms (audio-spectograms) derived from tape-recorded songs are included to illustrate the descriptions. The tape-recordings were made between 30 April and 16 September, 1985, in both riverine forest and peatswamp forest habitats in the Padang-Sugihan wildlife Reserve, south Sumatra province. The recordings were examined on a Unigon 4500 Uniscan Spectrum Analyzer, and the sonograms were made on a Kay Digital Sono-Graph 7800 set to a wide (300 KHz) band range.

Abstract

Manusela National Park is located in central Seram at 129 deg E, 3 deg S and covers an area of 186 000 ha, about 11% of the surface area of Seram. The Park contains a broad selection of the habitats present in Seram, stretching from the north coast to within 5 km of the south coast. It includes a large portion of the Binaia-Merkele limestone massif with the highest mountain on Seram, Gunung (G). Binaia, at 24.90m, as well as the lower parallel ridge of Gunung (G). Kobipoto (1500 m) to the north, together with a broad section of the lowland alluvial plain where three wide rivers, the Wae Toluorang, Mual and Isal drain northwards to the sea (see fig.1). Observations were made by the authors between 20 July and 25 September 1987 as part of the ornithological research work conducted under the auspices of Operation Raleigh, Seram expedition.

Abstract

The remarkable endemic avifauna of Sulawesi includes two little known rails, Snoring Rail Aramidopsis plateni, and Bald-faced Rail Gymnocrex rosenbergii. Snoring Rail is known from 11 specimens from North, Central and South-east Sulawesi (White & Bruce 1986), all but one having been collected before 1940. The latest specimen was obtained from villagers in Lore Lindu National Park, Central Sulawesi, in 1980 (Watling 1983, P.B. Taylor pers. comm.). There have been no documented sightings of Snoring Rail since the 1930's (Ripley 1977). Bald-faced Rail is known from just one Sulawesi specimen, and three from Peleng (White & Bruce 1986), although other specimens have apparently been collected in the past (1940) but were eaten or lost (Coomans de Ruiter 1947). Very little is known about the habits of either species. During a three week visit to Lore Lindu National Park, Central Sulawesi, in 1987, I observed one, and probably two, Snoring Rails in Ahe Sopu River valley at c.750m on 7 July. The following day, I again heard, but did not see, Snoring Rail, but saw a Bald-faced Rail in the vicinity.
