- W2339001520 abstract "Stephens Island provides the classic example in the New Zealand region of the effect that predation by feral cats (Felis catus) can have on an island land bird fauna. Twenty-five species of native New Zealand land birds were recorded on the island in the early 1890s when it was still forested and free of mammalian predators. It is probable that Stephens Island still had its original land bird fauna at that time. The land bird species included large populations of the extinct Stephens Island piopio (Turnagra capensis minor), and the endangered South Island saddleback (Philesturnus c. carunculatus). Cats were introduced to Stephens Island, probably in 1894. They soon became feral and multiplied rapidly. The evidence indicates that cats were responsible for the rapid demise of the native land bird fauna of the island. Medway, D.G. 2004. The land bird fauna of Stephens Island, New Zealand in the early 1890s, and the cause of its demise. Notornis 51(4): 201-211. Stephens Island (40°40'S, 174°00'E) lies 3 km off the northern tip of D'Urville Island and 90 km north- west of Wellington in New Zealand's Cook Strait. It is bounded on all sides by steep cliffs that rise from 60 m in the south to 270 m in the west and is exposed to the full force of gales that funnel through the Strait. Although small (150 ha), the island rises to 280 m where a number of prominent ridges intersect near the western cliffs. The land is mostly rough and broken and the valleys between these ridges, which lack permanent streams, descend steeply to the cliff edge. Stephens Island was declared a Wildlife Sanctuary in 1966, reclassified as a Nature Reserve in 1997, and is now known as the Takapourewa Nature Reserve." @default.
