	Neophron percnopterus (Linnaeus, 1758)

Neophron percnopterus (mısır akbabası, küçük akbaba) Neophron cinsine bağlı bir kuş türüdür.^[2] Neophron cinsinin tek türü olan Türkiye ve Avrupa'daki en küçük akbabadır. 60–70 cm boyunda, 155–180 cm kanat açıklığında, 1.8-2.4 kg ağırlığındadır.^[3] Gövdesi ve kanat örtüleri beyaz, kanat telekleri siyahtır. Leşlerin diğer akbabalardan kalan kısmı ile çöplük ve mezbahalardaki atıklarla beslenir.

1960 ve 2010 yılları arasında yarıdan fazlası yok olan tür IUCN (Dünya Doğayı Koruma Birliği) tarafından "tehlike altında" (endangered) statüsüne alınmıştır. Dünya Kuşları Koruma Birliği'ne (Birdlife International) göre Türkiye, bu türün Avrupa popülasyonunun yarısını barındırmaktadır. Ankara'nın Beypazarı ilçesi, türün en önemli üreme ve beslenme alanıdır.

Üreme

Küçük akbaba tek eşli bir türdür. Araştırmalara göre çiftleşme yumurtlamadan 25 gün önce gerçekleşmektedir.^[3] Yuvalarını farklı büyüklüklerde mağaralara ve çıkıntılara, kayalıklara hatta bazen harabe binalar üzerine yapmaktadırlar. Nadir de olsa yere yuva yaptığı ile ilgili bilgi bulunmaktadır.^[3]
