The distribution of breeding red-billed gull colonies in New Zealand in relation to areas of plankton enrichment

J.A. Mills (1969)

Article Type: Paper

The main food of breeding red-billed gulls Larus novaehollandiae scopulinus in New Zealand appears to be the planktonic euphausiid Nyctiphanes australis. The distribution of the breeding colonies is discussed in relation to offshore hydrological features which could result in plankton enrichment near the colonies.

Seabirds found dead in New Zealand in 1964

Notornis, 16 (1), 50-56

M.J. Imber; B.W. Boeson (1969)

Article Type: Paper

During 1964, 45 members patrolled a total of 988 miles of coast and found 1,236 dead seabirds of 44 species. Mortality was highest in January and November, especially on some coasts exposed to westerly winds which were vigorous and prolonged in those months; on eastern coasts mortality was low throughout the year. There were no major wrecks. Fairy prions (Pachyptila turtur) and sooty shearwaters (Puffinus griseus) were, typically, the most abundant species, especially on western beaches of the North Island in November. Unusual species included silver-grey fulmar (Fulmarus glacialoides), black-winged petrel (Pterodroma hypoleuca nigripennis), sooty tern (Sterna fuscata) and little whimbrei (Numenius minutus).
