Résumé :	The social behaviour and vocalisations of the Great Black-headed Gull Larus ichthyaetus were studied at breeding colonies in northern Kazakhstan and in Turkmenistan, along the southeast shore of the Caspian Sea. These are described in this paper, and related to the unusual social organisation at breeding colonies, where intraspecific predation and infanticide are widespread. Aspects of signalling behaviour are also discussed in relation to the taxonomic position of the species.
