Understanding a species' diet is of paramount importance to ecology as it provides vital insights into interactions between organisms and their environment. In this study, we report the first data on the diet of wintering Razorbills (Alca torda) in the Mediterranean Sea. Taking advantage of the irruption event that occurred in the Mediterranean in...
Useful documents such as Ornithological Reports are no longer published, although these types of publications help us to evaluate population trends: the IUCN status of each species is influenced by this kind documentations, and they are useful also to improve knowledge on migratory movements and, generally, on animal ecology. A report often collect...
Reporting on uncommon wide animal movements could help in depicting potential carry-over effects at the population level, particularly in an era of rapid climate and environmental changes. The razorbill (Alca torda, Linnaeus 1758) is a regular passage migrant and winter visitor to Italian seas, but with sporadic presences usually involving small nu...
This is a new and unpublished breeding site of these species of conservation interest.
