Abstract

Common Cormorants of the Continental race Phalacrocorax carbo sinensis have recently increased their breeding populations, since some European countries have stopped control measures against them (Hansen, 1984; Hald-Mortensen, 1985; Rooth, 1985). This fact, not completely analyzed in the 1970’s (Cramp & Simmons, 1977) is now also affecting numbers observed on wintering grounds (Hansen, 1984; Suter, 1985).
