Diversity and Population of Ducks and Geese in Keibul Lamjao National Park (KLNP) in Manipur, India
View through CrossRef
As a part of the Asian Waterbird Census (AWC), surveys on ducks and geese were made at five (5) major waterbird congregation sites of Keibul Lamjao National Park (KLNP) during 2020-2024. A total of 18 species of ducks and two species of geese belonging to the family of Anatidae were recorded during the period. The duck species includes 14 migratory and 4 resident species and the two migratory geese species. Lesser Whistling Duck Dendrocygna javanica was the most abundant and dominant species in terms of population followed by Gadwall Anas strepera and Red - crested Pochard Netta rufina and minimum value was observed in Greylag Goose Anser anser. The Critically Endangered Baer’s Pochard Aythya fuligula was recorded in the year 2023 at Pabot Chingmang site (2 individuals). Another two globally Near threatened (NT) Ferruginous Pochard Aythya nyroca and Falcated Duck Anas falcata have been recorded here.
