Abstract
- Information regarding the past occurrence in the Făgăra Mountains of four species of Galliformes (Lagopus muta, Lagopus lagopus, Lyrurus tetrix and Alectoris grae++++++++++++++ca), as it results from the ornithological literature review, is shown in this paper. It was concluded that Lagopus muta and Lyrurus tetrix surely lived in the area, from where recently disappeared, mainly due to the human pressure, while the status of the species Lagopus lagopus and Alectoris graeca still remains uncertain. While it can be considered as a history of the ornithological researches in the area, principally, the work was created as a useful tool for those interested to start projects to restore bird species that have disappeared from the Făgăra Mountains.
