Morphological Characters of Bird Species in Taiwan

台灣鳥類之形態特徵彙整與初探

摘要


本文整理1987-1995年間由中華鳥會,執行鳥類繫放計畫,所得之鳥類形態測量值,建立其形態測量資料庫,以做為台灣鳥類基本資料庫之內容。共得223種鳥類之形態測值,包括體重、體長、尾長、喙長、跗骨長等,由於樣本數量之限制,本研究僅報導樣本數量大於20之85種鳥類之體重、喙長、跗骨長。本研究並比較10種鳥類形態測值與Dunning (1993)於其他地區測量之數值,結果發現,進行比較的種類中,有8種呈現區域性變異。綜合以上,本研究的資料將對於鳥類群聚生態、生態系和景觀生態之研究範疇有相當程度的貢獻。

We documented body measurements of birds captured during 1987-1995 banding research in Taiwan by Wild Bird Society Taiwan. A total of 223 bird species with measurements of body mass, length of body, head, tail, bill and tarsus, and maximum wing span were compiled for the database. Body mass, length of bill, and length of tarsus of 85 species that had sample sizes>20 were reported. In addition, we also compared our data with that from Dunning (1993). Among the ten species eligible for further analyses, we found that eight species showed significant differences in body mass between our data and that of Dunning (1993). Our results together with our recent studies (Lee et al, 2004; Ding et al., 2005) showed that compiling banding research data contribute to predict ecological parameters of bird studies in community, ecosystem and landscape levels.
