Notes

Abstract:
The wading birds of south Florida have attracted the attention of naturalists, biologists and conservationists for deccades. These species of herons, ibis, spoonbills, and storks have figured importantly in national and international conservation efforts and in the establishment of natural preserves such as Everglades National park and Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary. Regional population decreases caused initially by hunting and then by loss of habitat are well known. However, understanding the current status and providing for the conservation of theses species require much additional research. A basic tool in such research is the information available in the many previous publications of the biology and status of wading birds in southern Florida. This report is an attempt to bring together some of the existing published information. ( English )
