Abstract

The Madagascar Buzzard (Buteo brachypterus) is reported to be common in wooded habitats throughout Madagascar (Langrand and Meyburg 1984). Information on the biology and ecology of the species is limited to brief accounts of individuals and nesting pairs (Rand 1936, Benson et al. 1976, Thiollay and Meyburg 1981, Langrand and Meyburg 1984, Berkelman 1995). The goal of this study was to describe the nest reoccupancy, breeding density, nest dispersion, breeding season, productivity, nesting success, and breeding behavior of the Madagascar Buzzard in the rain forest of the Masoala Peninsula.
