Nine Capercaillie leks and 14 cocks wereregistered in Mediterranean Quercus pyrenaica forests inan area of 1,500 km2, of which 4,500 forest hectares weresurveyed. At present, this population represents both thesouthern-most distribution for Capercaillie and the onlyone inhabiting Mediterranean Q. pyrenaica forests, whatsuggests a wider adaptation of this (sub)species than previouslythought. This population and its habitat need to bebetter studied, as well as to be considered in conservationplanning for Cantabrian Capercaillie PB Springer YR 2012 FD 2012-06-20 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10612/1787 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10612/1787 NO Journal of Ornithology, 2010, vol. 151, n. 4 NO P. 901-906 DS BULERIA.
