The latest issue of Marine Ornithology (Vol. 36 No. 1 for 2008) is now available on the journal's web site.  Go directly  to http://www.marineornithology.org/PDF/36_1/36_1_BackCover.pdf to view  the contents page.

The first paper* in the issue reports on an initiative of ACAP's Advisory Committee to develop critera against which to judge candidate species for listing on Annex 1 of the Agreement.  The three North Pacific albatrosses of the genus Phoebastria are identified  as the strongest candidates for inclusion.
