Abhandlung

The Stefanoni collection of birds. – Giovanni Stefanoni (1885–1974) was a Swiss hunter and self-taught taxidermist. In 1951 he sold a lot of 56 mounted bird specimens to the Natural History Museum of Basel and 7 to the Natural History Museum of Fribourg. The collection contained an unusual number of remarkable faunistic records from the Swiss canton Ticino, some of them even new to Switzerland. Stefanoni claimed to have shot the birds himself, or to have obtained or bought them from befriended hunters. After a thorough examination of the collection by Ernst Sutter of the Basel museum strong doubts arose in respect of the origin of part of the specimens. Stefanoni very probably bought many specimens from taxidermists in Italy and supplied them with a Swiss provenience. With the exception of Bianchi et al. (1969–1972) all of the peculiar records have been ignored by the relevant faunistic publications and handbooks and the Swiss Rarities Committee disregards all the «records» compiled in Table 1 (except a Brant Goose Branta bernicla in February 1927).
