In 2004 the Danish Rarities Committee (Sjaeldenhedsud-valget, SU) processed 169 Danish records (including 12 records on behalf of the regional reports) of which about 80% were accepted. No cases concerning Greenland records were finished.The main section of the report (Accepted records) includes species on the Danish list belonging to categories A, B and C according to the AERC standard. Species belonging to category D and E and records involving hybrids are treated after the main section, as are species considered for the regional reports, before the sections dealing with records still under consideration, and records not accepted.For each record the following details are included: 1) year and date, 2) location (see map for regions), 3) number of individuals if more than one, 4) other details if known: sdr. = summer plumage, vdr. = winter plumage, odr. = transitional plumage, K = calendar year, ringm. = ringed, and 5) name of observer(s), with finders marked by asterisks. Where applicable, documentation by photo (Foto), video (Video), audiotape (Band) or corpse (Dod) is indicated.The numbers in brackets after the species name refer to the total number of records and individuals (separated by a slash) in Denmark 1) before 1950, 2) from 1950 to 2003 me]., and 3) in 2004, respectively.No new species were added to the Danish list in 2004, and the only taxon new to Denmark presented here is ssp. atrifons of the Lesser Sand Plover Charadrius mongolus - three records of what is believed to be the same individual, and only the second Lesser Sand Plover in Denmark (the first was identifed as ssp. mongolus). Other remarkable records from 2004 were American Bittern Botaurus lentiginosus (same booming male as in 20012003), Sociable Plover Vanellus gregarius (4th record), Booted Warbler Hippolais caligata (4th), Bonaparte's Gull Larus philadelphia (3rd), and an invasion of Pine Grosbeak Pinicola enucleator.
