You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.199.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 12:56, 12 May 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Antoon Emeric Marcel De Roo''' (born 26 August 1936 in [[Roeselare]]; died 25 February 1971) was a [[Belgians|Belgian]] [[ornithologist]].

== Life ==
De Roo was already scientifically active before he received his [[Licentiate (degree)|licentiate]] in [[biology]] from the [[KU Leuven|Katholieke Universiteit Leuven]] in 1959. Together with his friend Paul Houwen he observed the swift colonies of Roeselare during his student days. In 1954 he became an employee at the Belgian Bird Ringing Center, where he mainly focused on the marking, measurement and examination of moulting birds.

His great interest in the birds of Central Africa brought him in 1962 in contact with [[Henri Schouteden]]. This encouraged him in his research and enabled him to study the very extensive ornithological collections of the [[Royal Museum for Central Africa]]. He devoted himself above all to the geography and systematics of birds, especially the swift family ([[Apodidae]]).

After his military service he went to the [[Republic of the Congo]] for three years (1962–1965) as part of development aid, where he participated in the Belgian bird ringing program in Luluabourg (now [[Kananga]]). During this time he and Jan Deheegher marked 6,310 birds for the Belgian Vogelberingzentrale, including 648 specimens of 20 [[Palearctic realm|palaearctic]] species and 5,662 specimens of 100 [[Paleotropical Kingdom|paleotropic]] species. The results of this ringing action were published in 1965 together with those of Antoon Frans De Bont under the title "''Resultats du beguage d'oiseaux en Republique Democratique du Congo et en Republique du Rwanda (1959 à 1965)"'' in the magazine ''Le Gerfaut: De Giervalk''.

From 1962 to 1971 he was a research assistant at the Royal Museum for Central Africa in [[Tervuren]]. From May 1968 to 1971 he was a research assistant at the Laboratory for General Zoology at the [[University of Antwerp]], where he mainly devoted himself to the ornithology of Africa. In 1968 he took part in one of the three Belgian [[Togo]] expeditions led by Walter Verheyen. The systematic and geographical analysis of the rich bird collection gathered on these trips was published by him in four papers in the journal ''Revue de Zoölogie et de Botanique Africaines''.

In 1969 he co-authored the studies ''Contribution a l'Ornithologie de la Republique du Togo'' and ''Contribution a l'etude des chiropteres de la Republique du Togo'' alongside Walter Verheyen and Frits De Vree.

In 1967 De Roo described the [[Prigogine's greenbul]] (''[[Chlorocichla]] prigoginei'') and in 1970 the subspecies ''[[Apus (bird)|Apus]] barbatus serlei of'' the [[African black swift]]. In 1968 he set up the class of scarce swift, ''[[Scarce swift|Schoutedenapus]]''.

== Dedication names ==
In 1970, the [[parasitologist]] Alex Fain described the mite species ''[[Knemidokoptes]] derooi'' , which causes beak [[mange]] in the [[African palm swift]]. In 1972 Jan L. J. Hulselmans honored De Roo in the species epithet of the frog species ''[[Conraua derooi]]''. In 1975 [[Alexandre Prigogine]] named the subspecies ''[[Cyanomitra alinae]] derooi of'' the blue-headed sunbird after De Roo. In 1978 Erik Van der Straeten and Walter Verheyen described [[Deroo's mouse]] (''[[Praomys]] derooi'').
