Dit is geen Grijskopspecht (Grey-headed Woodpecker - Picus canus) maar een African Grey Woodpecker (Dendropicos goertae).

Knowledge of the birds of Algeria has considerable progressed in recent years, especially in the south of the country, mainly in the wilayas of Adrar, Djanet, Béchar, Bordj Badji Mokhtar, Illizi, In Guezzam, Tamanrasset, and Tindouf. A series of surveys in southern Algeria by the authors of this work, completed with data from other observers, resulted in the discovery of new species or stations, sometimes firsts for the region, the country, the Maghreb or North Africa. These include Rüppell's Warbler Sylvia ruppeli (8-12-2018), Jacobin Cuckoo Clamator jacobinus (5-10-2019), Rüppell's Vulture Gyps rueppelli (9-11-2020), African Crake Crex egregia (27-11- 2020), Blue-naped Mousebird Urocolius macrourus (23-12-2021), African Grey Woodpecker Dendropicos goertae (23-12-2021), Black Scrub Robin Cercotrichas podobe (23-12-2021) and White-rumped Seedeater Crithagra leucopygia (31-01-2022). For each species, we discuss whether the evidence suggest that they should be treated as genuine vagrants or escapes from captivity. Southern birds are most often found in oases, gardens or farms, or wadis: where there is abundant vegetation and water in an arid bioclimate, at altitudes ranging from 270 to 1814 meters. This variety of species highlights the taxonomic richness and confirms the interest of prospecting this part of the country, which is difficult to access but which has always been considered an important, though poorly prospected, region by ornithologists of previous periods.

> African Grey Woodpecker Dendropicos goertae broedt op deze plek, en dat is wellicht interessant voor fervente WP twitchers.

Gaaf George. Helaas ben in het Frans totaal onmachtig. Zijn al deze soorten indien behandeld dan toegelaten op de Algerijnse lijst? Ik zag Village Indigobird ook met meerdere gevallen staan. Indien wild de nieuwe purple patch voor WP twitchers. Ik miste Chestnut-bellied Starling en Village en Vitelline Masked Weaver maar die gevallen zijn mogelijk te recent?
