<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-GB>Data on population size and breeding
success of Gentoo Penguins <span class=A1><span style='font-size:12.0pt'><i>Pygoscelis
papua</i></span></span> at the Falkland Islands have been collected since 1990
as part of the Falkland Islands Seabird Monitoring Programme (FISMP). During
the austral summer of 2005/2006, the third five-yearly survey of all Gentoo
Penguins breeding in the Falklands Archipelago was undertaken. Results are
presented and compared to previous population estimates. The number of breeding
pairs in 2005/2006 was estimated at 65,857, a decline of 42% since 2000, which
was attributed largely to paralytic shellfish poisoning resulting from a harmful
algal bloom event in 2002. Based on a selected number of colonies that were
monitored annually, the population increased by over 95% after 2000, and
numbered a record high of some 128,500 breeding pairs in 2008. On average,
annual breeding success was 1.01 (ranging between 0.51 and 1.44) chicks per
breeding pair. Although no particular trend was evident, breeding success was
above average between 2004 and 2008 which is likely to contribute towards
future population growth. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
