Sawflies (Hymenoptera: Symphyta) of the Parc Natural de s’Albufera de Mallorca

[eng]Eleven sawfly species are recorded from the largest wetland area in the Balearic Islands. Seven of these species are recorded for the first time in the archipelago, with one of them, Janus luteipes, being an addition to the recorded fauna of the Iberian Region.[cat]S’han registrat onze símfits a la zona humida més gran de les Illes Balears. Set d’aquestes espècies han estat primera cita per a l’arxipèlag, essent una d’elles, Janus luteipes, també una addició per a la fauna de la regió Ibèrica

Decline in an Atlantic Puffin population : evaluation of magnitude and mechanisms

Funding: This study was funded annually by Fair Isle Bird Observatory Trust (www.fairislebirdobs.co.uk) with contributions from the Joint Nature Conservation Committee (jncc.defra.gov.uk). Funding was received from these two sources by Fair Isle Bird Observatory from 1986 to 2013. The Joint Nature Conservation Committee and Fair Isle Bird Observatory Trust supplied guidance on study design, data collection, analyses, preparation of the manuscript and the decision to publish.Peer reviewedPublisher PD

Quantifying full phenological event distributions reveals simultaneous advances, temporal stability and delays in spring and autumn migration timing in long-distance migratory birds

Acknowledgements We thank all Fair Isle Bird Observatory staff and volunteers for help with data collection and acknowledge the foresight of George Waterston and Ken Williamson in instigating the observatory and census methodology. We thank all current and previous directors of Fair Isle Bird Observatory Trust for their contributions, particularly Dave Okill and Mike Wood for their stalwart support for the long-term data collection and for the current analyses. Dawn Balmer and Ian Newton provided helpful guidance on manuscript drafts. We thank Ally Phillimore and two anonymous referees for helpful comments. This study would have been impossible without the Fair Isle community's invaluable support and patience over many decades, which is very gratefully acknowledged. WTSM and JMR designed and undertook analyses, wrote the paper and contributed to data collection and compilation, MB contributed to analysis and editing, all other authors oversaw and undertook data collection and compilation and contributed to editing.Peer reviewedPostprin

Population size estimates for Atlantic Puffin and Great Skua.

<p>A. The maximum count of individual adult Atlantic Puffins on Fair Isle in census years between 1986 and 2013 and B. the total number of Great Skua nesting pairs (apparently occupied territories) on Fair Isle in 1987 to 2013.</p

Atlantic Puffin survival and resighting probability estimates.

<p>A. Mean estimated adult Atlantic Puffin apparent survival probability (φ) and B. resighting probability (p) during 1987 to 2012. Estimates of φ and p are from models with random year effects on φ and p (<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0131527#pone.0131527.t001" target="_blank">Table 1</a> and see <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0131527#sec002" target="_blank">Methods</a>).

<p>Age groupings: (1) one year olds; (NBI) non-breeding immatures, 2 to 5 years of age; (BA) breeding adults. Demographic parameters: (R) breeding success of breeding adult pairs and survival rate of immatures from fledging to one year old [= breeding success of breeding adult pairs x 0.5 x annual survival probability of non-breeding immatures]; (T1) transition rate of immatures from one year old to two year old [= annual survival probability of non-breeding immatures]; (IS) annual survival probability of non-breeding immatures, remaining as non-breeders; (T2) transition rate of immatures to become breeders [= (annual survival probability of non-breeding immatures)⁴]; (AS) annual survival rate of breeding adults, adult Puffin φ.</p
