WHEATEARS OF PALEARCTIC. ECOLOGY, BEHAVIOUR AND EVOLUTION OF THE GENUS
OENANTHE. PENSOFT SERIES FAUNISTICA NO. 40, ISSN 1312-0174.
Panov, E, 2005
165x240, b/w drawings, tables, over 120 color photographs, bibliography,
index, hardback, publication date: February, 2005
In English. 439 pp. EUR 58.79
Wheatears are elegant and colourful birds often found in wild and beautiful
settings and appeal to ornithologists and birders alike. This new book by an
acknowledged expert is unique in its detailed treatment of the 14 Palearctic
species. Richly illustrated, it presents a wealth of information, largely
derived from studies in Russia and other parts of the former Soviet Union,
on a variety of subjects: taxonomic questions; flamboyant displays and
highly varied, sometimes mimetic, songs; the construction of stone platforms
at the nest; the striking polymorphism of the Eastern Pied (or Variable)
Wheatear; range expansion by the Northern Wheatear and its impressively long
migrations; the burrow-nesting habits of the Isabelline Wheatear, and on
many other topics. The author, an exceptionally skilled observer and
interpreter of bird behaviour, has drawn on his immense experience of many
hours spent watching wheatears in the field; he has reared young wheatears
in captivity, and has studied the wheatear literature, including that on
species distributed outside the Palearctic. The book's thought-provoking
text is well supported by an array of diagrams, tables, drawings by the
author, and colour photographs of birds and habitats.
