Abstract
    The Albanian coastal region is among the least known areas in the entire Mediterranean basin. The network of protected sites includes national parks and hunting reserves. Nature conservation legislation is currently being revised. The eight largest coastal wetlands were evaluated during November 1992 and May 1993. Pelecaniform and Ciconiiform populations were intensively surveyed. Observations were compared with historical data.
