Abstract Aim Among the world's three major nectar‐feeding bird taxa, hummingbirds are most phenotypically specialized for nectarivory, followed by sunbirds, while honeyeaters least taxa. We tested whether this phenotypic specialization gradient is also found in interaction patterns with their floral resources. Location Americas, Africa, Asia and Oceania/Australia. Methods compiled networks between birds resources 79 hummingbird, nine sunbird 33 honeyeater communities. Interaction was...
Strand monitoring is valuable for identifying human-caused threats to sea turtles but has limitations in fully understanding their overall impact. To address this gap, we conducted a survey examine turtle interactions with longline fisheries, focusing on the types of hooks used different target fish species. The study aimed determine prevalence entangled these fisheries and investigate seasonal spatial variations strandings. From August 2015 December 2020, regular surveys were carried out...
In Brazil Scarlet Ibis Eudocimus ruber occurs mainly in the north, southeast and south. During 1900s, there was a significant reduction number of records latter two regions country, but this began to change early 1980s, when numbers gradually started increase over years. We contextualise history species south south-east Brazil, discuss causes for its apparent disappearance reappearance these regions. believe that anthropogenic factors, coupled with species' ecology, were responsible...
Procellaria cinerea Gmelin, 1789 and Pachyptila vittata (Forster, 1977) are considered vagrants in Brazil, with very few documented records the country. Here, we present first of these species from state São Paulo, southeastern Brazil. Morphometrics, post-mortem examinations, a genetic analysis allowed us to identify species, reproductive status, cause death, sex specimens.
Abstract An opportunistic rescue of a stranded 6 m giant manta ray off Ilha Comprida, in São Paulo, southeastern Brazil, revealed new technique for returning large bodied mobulid rays to the water once beached. The technique, adapted from protocols move cetaceans, was modified suit dorso‐ventrally compressed shape and reduce damage animal while being pulled back into deeper water. method suggestions its improvement have been described with intention assisting other mobulids.
Os projetos de monitoramento praia são uma importante ferramenta utilizada no licenciamento ambiental para avaliar impactos diferentes atividades humanas ambiente costeiro e marinho. Uma das realizadas por estes é o resgate reabilitação animais, incluindo os cetáceos. Este estudo analisa casos cetáceos feitos pelo Projeto Monitoramento Praias da Bacia Santos (PMP-BS) entre anos 2016 a 2019. O PMP-BS percorre diariamente cerca 2100km costa ao longo do litoral sudeste-sul brasileiro com...
Abstract We report the first record of Grey Gull ( Leucophaeus modestus ) in Brazil. On 21 April 2019 at 08:31 h, secondcycle bird was photographed walking near a small stream that flows into sea on Ilha Comprida, state São Paulo, southeastern coast The occurrence single individual Atlantic South American continent lead us to propose species is vagrant
Abstract: The Parque Estadual Ilha do Cardoso (PEIC), located on extreme South of São Paulo’s cost, in Brazil, holds an important Atlantic Forest remnant which still a good state conservation, but lack deepen study about the avian community that habits island. This aimed to elaborate census species occur park approaching richness, occurrence frequency, status and structure trophic guilds. A total 25 field expedictions occurred between September 2015 2017 during five days each, work included...
The order Procellariiformes comprises mainly oceanic species that are occasionally recorded from along the Brazilian coast. We presents first records of Lugensa brevirostris (Lesson, 1831) (Kerguelen Petrel) and Phoebetria palpebrata (Forster, 1785) (Light-mantled Albatross) for state São Paulo, Brazil. Both were municipality Ilha Comprida. was on 25 May 2016 P. 3 October 2016. Therefore, we add 2 important to avifauna suggest inclusion both list birds in Paulo.
