To understand the current status of bird species and changes in their fauna composition in the Dajiu Lake Wetland(DLW),a national park in Shennongjia,we obtained the latest list of birds in the DLW through a combination of line sampling,point sampling,infrared camera-trapping,and reviewing existing literature from January,2019 to De-cember,2023.The results showed that 304 bird species belonging to 18 orders and 65 families are found in the DLW.Among them,10 species are listed as national class Ⅰ key protected wildlife,such as Syrmaticus reevesii,Mergus squa-matus,and Emberiza aureola.Additionally,53 species are listed as national class Ⅱ key protected wildlife,such as Tragopan temminckii,Aix galericulata,and Slaty Emberiza siemsseni.In terms of regional composition,a large number of bird species belong to Oriental species(135 species,44.41％),followed by Palearctic species(109 species,35.86％).The results show that the DLW is rich in bird species diversity and rare and endangered species.Meanwhile,the infrared camera-trapping technology has obvious advantages in monitoring and recording of ground-dwelling birds.Our findings provide a reference for the effective protection and scientific management of birds in the DLW and their habi-tats through the data mining from the regular monitoring of birds in the wetland.
