summary
Unprotected mIBAs with important numbers:
Yelkouan Shearwater: Turkey- outside colony: Bosphorus European Shag: Turkey- colonies: Ayvalık Marmara Islands Amasra Coast outside colonies: Bosphorus
![Page 46: Which species are being protected across the Mediterranean ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012504/617f334f780e5e32904279e3/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
- Good coverage of MPA in Europe for existing mIBA
- Main gaps: - Baseline data for north African coast (colonies?) - Non-breeding / at sea sites
