[APPENDIX] [*] 

 IV-1 



SPECIALLY PROTECTED AREAS: TAYLOR ROOKERY 



The Representatives, considering that Taylor Rookery contains a 

 colony of Emperor Penguins {Aptenodytes forsteri) which is one of 

 the few, and probably the largest, of the known colonies of this species 

 located wholly on land, recommend to their Governments that the 

 following be inserted in Annex B, Specially Protected Areas, of the 

 Agreed Measures for the Conservation of Antarctic Fauna and Flora : 



SPECIALLY PROTECTED AREA N° 1 



Taylor Rookery, Mac. Robertson Land 

 Lat. 67°26' S., Long. 60°50' E. 



Description : The area consists of the whole of the north- 

 ernmost rock exposure on the eastern side of Taylor 

 Glacier. The area is shown on the attached map. 



IV-2 



SPECIALLY PROTECTED AREAS : ROOKERY ISLANDS 



The Representatives, considering that Rookery Islands contain 

 breeding colonies of all six bird species resident in the Mawson area, 

 two of which, the Giant Petrel {Macronectes giganteus) and the Cape 

 Pigeon {Daption capensis), occur nowhere else in the region and that 

 it is of scientific importance to safeguard this unusual association of 

 six species and to preserve a sample of their habitat, recommend to 



^Recommendations IV-1 through IV-19 to be considered as interim guide 

 lines in accordance with Recommendation IV-20, ante, p. 39.
