Age- and sex-related differences in head feather patterns of black stilts (Himantopus novaezelandiae)

Notornis, 47 (3), 127-130

S.P. Elkington; R.F. Maloney (2000)

Article Type: Paper

Patterns of white feathers on the heads of 10 female and 18 male wild and captive adult black stilts (Himantopus novaezelandiae) were quantified to determine whether the presence and location of white flecking was age- or sex-related. Eleven of the males, but none of the females had white flecking on their heads. Flecking occurred on 2-7 of 9 head regions described and an increased amount of flecking was positively correlated with increasing age. Males without white flecks were 2-7 years old, whereas males with flecks were aged 5-19 years. Most flecking was around the eyes, in the superciliary region and on the crown. We conclude that the presence of white flecking around the eyes or generally scattered on the head is a reliable indicator of a black stilt being old and male.

Status of the Westland petrel (Procellaria westlandica) off South America

Notornis, 47 (4), 179-183

E.S. Brinkley; S.N.G. Howell; M.P. Force; L.B. Spear; D.C. Ainley (2000)

Article Type: Paper

The presence of small numbers of Westland petrels (Procellaria westlandica) off the east and west coasts of South America is a relatively recent discovery. Evidence for the presence of the species in those seas has, however, been found to extend back at least as far as 1913, with the re-identification of a specimen in the American Museum of Natural History collection as P. westlandica. Preliminary comments are given on the condition of plumage of Westland petrels observed in South American waters.
