SUMMARY
Thejackdaw Corvus monedula
in Iceland
by
Ólafur Karl Nielsen,
Museum of Natural Hislory, Reykjavík.
The Jackdaw is a rather frequent spring
and auturan vagrant in Iceland. Icelandic
records up to 1 July 1979 are listed bclow.
[P. Nielsen is said to have collected a
Jackdaw at Eyrarbakki, SW.-Iceland (Pear-
son & Pearson 1895) in 1896 (Gröndal
1901). In his diary P. Nielsen states that he
never saw or collected any Jackdaw in Ice-
land. This widely quoted record is therefore
rejected.)
1) One Stóru-Laugar, NE.-Iceland,
spring 1901. (Havsteen 1931).* This
bird has erroneosly been said to have
been caught at Stóra-Tunga, NE.-Ice-
land (Sæmundsson 1905). And Tim-
mermann (1949) made two records out
of this single specimen.
2) <S Reykjavík, 26 October 1910 (Sæ-
mundsson 1911).*
3) One at Skaftafell, öræfi, SE.-Iceland,
15 October 1952.*
4) One seen at Fagurhólsmýri, öræfi,
SE.-Iceland, 15öctober 1952.
