摘要

紅耳鵯(Pycnonotusjocosus)廣泛分布於東南亞，但並不自然分布於台灣。然而，由近年於台北市2個不同地點的野外繁殖紀錄，顯示其於台灣可能正處於建立族群的過程中。本文審視1985年後紅耳鵯於台灣的觀察紀錄，及首次詳細報導2010年5月紅耳鵯於野外的1次繁殖嘗試。本文亦回顧紅耳鵯的孵蛋期、育雛期、繁殖日期及可能的鳥巢天敵，並討論紅耳鵯於台灣建立族群的可能性，以及其後續可能衍生的影響。

The red-whiskered bulbul Pycnonotus jocosus is widely distributed across south-east Asia but does not occur naturally in Taiwan. Recent evidence suggests that it may be in the process of establishing itself in Taiwan with breeding evidence reported from two localities in Taipei City. This paper reviews the observational records of the red-whiskered bulbul sightings in Taiwan since 1985, and then reports its first documented nesting attempt in May 2010. Furthermore, the incubation period, nestling period, breeding dates and predation of red-whiskered bulbul nestlings in the literature were briefly reviewed. The likelihood and possible consequences of a successful establishment of the red-whiskered bulbul in Taiwan were discussed, ending with a short summary of the number of exotic bird species that have been recorded and bred in the wild in Taiwan.
