FINAL REPORT 
A SEROLOGICAL AND ECTOPARASITE SURVEY OF MIGRATORY BIRDS IN NORTHEAST AFRICA 
Palearctic Migratory Bird Survey 
Appendix I 
Included in this Appendix are distribution maps of the major species 
of birds, ticks and virus strains studied during the Palearctic Migratory 
Bird Survey (PMS), as well as lists of banded birds recovered in the Near 
East. The bird distribution maps (pages 1-137) show Egyptian (star), Cyprus 
(black circle), Israel (square), and Lebanon (open circle) recoveries. The 
recovery lists, pages 157-220 should be consulted for details. The tick 
maps (pages 138-148) were prepared by Dr. Kaiser on the basis of prelimi¬ 
nary data and although subject to later revision are the best approximations 
of distribution currently available. The virus maps (pages 149-156) show 
only the locations of primary isolations of the various strains. Pages 
157-199 present banding details of Near Eastern (Egypt, Cyprus, Lebanon 
and Israel) birds both those banded in the area, and recovered elsewhere, 
and foreign bands recovered in the Near East. The recoveries are the re¬ 
sult of PMS activities (pages 157-192). Additional Cyprus recoveries 
(pages 200-220) were previously reported in the Bulletin of the Cyprus 
Ornithological Society. Most of these recoveries are shown on the bird maps. 
Recovery information on birds banded at Azraq by the British Trust for 
Ornithology and International Jordan Expedition was provided by Mr. I. J. 
Ferguson-Lees (pages 221-222). These recoveries are not included on the 
maps. We have not yet received banding information for a number of re¬ 
coveries of foreign bands found in Egypt (pages 223-232). Many of these 
are a number of years old and, in particular, we have had some difficulty 
getting banding information from the U.S.S.R.
