Abstract

This report is a review of the status of knowledge of Samoan birds and is based on existing information and research conducted in Samoa over the past 100 years. The review was commissioned by the O le Siosiomaga Society Inc (OLSSI) as part of a collaborative project to identify Samoa's important bird areas (IBAs) between OLSSI, the Birdlife Pacific Partnership, Conservation International's Pacific Islands Program (CI-PIP) and the Samoan Ministry of Natural resources and Environment (MNRE)
