Chris,
Can the hybrid between Greylag Goose (Anser anser) and Canada Goose (Branata canadensis) be added to the UKSI and beyond please. It is a hybrid we come across often in the North West (not sure about the rest of the UK).
Many thanks.
Steve
Oh yes! Playfully known locally as 'Canalags'!!
No problem - TVK=NHMSYS0021235678 :)
Chris,
I have tried looking for this entry on the UKSI at (http://nbn-sd-dev.nhm.ac.uk/taxonbrowser.php) and can find nothing at all.
Can you tell me what name I would need to type on this page (above) to find the entry for this Hybrid Goose (Greylag x Canada Goose (Anser anser x Branta canadensis) ??
Also, is there an entry for the MallardxMuscovy Duck cross (Anas platyrhynchos x Cairina moschata) and an entry for the Genus cross Branta x Anser ??
Many thanks for your help and any clarification you can provide.
Steve
I have found Greylag x Canada Goose hybrid (A. anser x B. canadensis)
[Steve if I search "Anser anser" in that box it is listed as the last entry on the page, and it's in 'A Master Checklist' on my copy of Recorder]
However I am struggling to find entries for the other hybrids recieved from the bird group. Can anyone tell me if they exist (and I'm just looking in the wrong place) or if they don't exist (and what I can do about it)? I'm new to Recorder and still finding my way around.
Black Swan x Mute Swan (Cygnus atratus x C. olor)
Barnacle x Canada Goose hybrid (Branta canadensis x B. leucopsis)
LBBG x Herring Gull hybrid (Larus fuscus x L. argentatus)
Gadwall x Mallard hybrid (Mareca/Anas strepera x Anas platyrhynchos)
Many thanks,
Nicole
Thanks Nicole - appreciated. Found it now, thanks to your help, in both the UKSI and in iRecord.
You are correct though - I cannot find any of the other Hybrids you list either !
Cheers,
Steve
Nicole - I'll raise those hybrids with Andy Musgrove of the BTO. I always go with his ruling on anything birdy as the BTO are ultimately the final destination for most bird data :)
OK, those have all been done now :)
Thanks Chris - appreciated.
