MOULT RECORDS FOR TROPICAL BIRD SPECIES TRAPPED IN ANGOLA

Abstract

Between 21 and 27 July 2015 a total of 43 birds of 15 species were caught with mist nets at Kissikina, Malange, Angola. Thirty-two of those, of 11 species, were moulting primaries and their moult was recorded. In this note, I present the data collected hoping to add some information on the moult patterns of these species in this part of the world.
