Abstract

Abstract Neither the breeding status nor the fundamental ecology of Malayan Night Heron Gorsachius melanolophus is well-known. This report provides the first evidence of it breeding on Hateruma Island in Japan, where it has previously only been known from its calls. In 2022, a nest was found from which a fledgling was raised; the brooding period took more than 29 days. Although the species is commonly referred to as crepuscular or nocturnal, feeding events were recorded from the morning to the early evening.

马来亚夜鹭(Gorsachius melanolophus)在Hateruma岛上的繁殖记录

摘要马来亚夜鹭的繁殖状况和基本生态学都不为人所知。这份报告首次证明了它在日本的鸠山岛繁殖，此前人们只从它的叫声中知道它。2022年，人们发现了一个巢穴，从中养育了一只雏鸟；育婴期超过29天。尽管该物种通常被称为黄昏或夜间，但从早上到傍晚都有进食事件的记录。
