Abstract

Protected areas (PAs) in Terai-Arc landscape are relatively poorly explored as far as bird communities are concerned. Here we report a checklist and significant records of birds recorded during opportunistic observations and systematic bird surveys in four PAs: Katerniaghat Wildlife Sanctuary (2001–2004, 2006, 2008, and 2015); Pilibhit Tiger Reserve (2014–15); Valmiki Tiger Reserve (2014–17), and Udaipur Wildlife Sanctuary (2018). We have compiled a checklist of 424 species that includes 358 species in the Katerniaghat Wildlife Sanctuary, 306 species in the Valmiki Tiger Reserve, 236 species in the Pilibhit Tiger Reserve, and 128 species in Udaipur Wildlife Sanctuary. Most species belong to the Insectivore guild (190 species, 44.8%), while the nectivorous guild was the least represented (10 species, 2.35%). A total of 9% of species in the region were either globally threatened (6 Critically Endangered, 5 Endangered, and 8 Vulnerable) or Near Threatened (19 species). Sightings of species of conservation importance have been discussed.

印度特莱-阿尔克地貌四个保护区的鸟类：重要记录和物种清单

就鸟类群落而言，对德赖-阿克地貌的保护区（PAs）的探索相对较少。在此，我们报告了在四个保护区进行机会观察和系统鸟类调查时记录的鸟类清单和重要记录：Katerniaghat 野生动物保护区（2001-2004 年、2006 年、2008 年和 2015 年）；Pilibhit 老虎保护区（2014-15 年）；Valmiki 老虎保护区（2014-17 年）和 Udaipur 野生动物保护区（2018 年）。我们编制了一份包含 424 个物种的清单，其中包括 Katerniaghat 野生动物保护区的 358 个物种、Valmiki 老虎保护区的 306 个物种、Pilibhit 老虎保护区的 236 个物种和 Udaipur 野生动物保护区的 128 个物种。大多数物种属于食虫类（190 种，44.8%），而食肉类物种最少（10 种，2.35%）。该地区共有 9% 的物种受到全球威胁（6 种极度濒危、5 种濒危和 8 种易危）或接近受威胁（19 种）。讨论了发现的具有重要保护意义的物种。
