Since 2005, the Brazilian Ornithological Records Committee (CBRO) has published updated checklists of birds almost every year. Herein, we present a completely new and annotated version our checklist. For first time, list all bird subspecies known from Brazil that are currently accepted by at least one key ornithological reference work. The inclusion should be seen as synthesis, not taxonomic endorsement. As such, include in checklist 1919 avian species, 910 which treated polytypic works...
An often-overlooked question of the biodiversity crisis is how natural hazards contribute to species extinction risk. To address this issue, we explored four hazards, earthquakes, hurricanes, tsunamis, and volcanoes, overlapped with distribution ranges amphibians, birds, mammals, reptiles that have either narrow distributions or populations few mature individuals. assess which are at risk from these combined frequency magnitude each hazard estimate their impact. We considered if they regions...
Inventários rápidos realizados em diferentes pontos no sul do Ceará e oeste de Pernambuco julho setembro 2004 encontraram um total 209 espécies aves. A maior riqueza foi características das várias formações da Caatinga (99 espécies), seguidas por áreas abertas ou generalistas (65) aves aquáticas (45). Não encontrado padrão que associasse a similaridade entre geográfico. As numericamente dominantes tendem ser pequenos insetívoros se alimentam meio à vegetação baixa granívoros como Columbidae...
Post-release monitoring data of reintroduced captive-bred birds can be utilized to help optimize future avian reintroduction programs. We present a case study broad interest and conservation biologists interested in investigating movements habitat use by birds. used radio telemetry monitor red-billed curassow Crax blumenbachii at private reserve, Rio de Janeiro state, Brazil. During August 2006 October 2008, 25 radio-tagged individuals (15 females 10 males, all <30 months old) were monitored...
Pendant une etude de capture-recapture qui a dure treize mois, onze especes petits rongeurs etaient presentes sur grille piegeage d'une demi hectare dans foret secondaire la cote atlantique, au sud l'Etat Sao Paulo, Bresil. L'espece plus regulierement capturee ete Delomys dorsalis, rencontree toute l'annee, suivie par Akodon nigrita, presentent un patron irregulier capture. Les autres Oryzomys capito, O. ratticeps, nigripes, Oxymycterus hispidus, crusor (deux formes caryotypiques), A....
Flocks of seabirds attending commercial bottom long‐line fishing operations on the coastal shelf off southeastern Brazil show a greater species diversity during summer than winter (16 v 9 species), although number birds per flock tended to be cold season. During summer, Spectacled Petrel Procellaria aequinoctialis conspi‐cillata was commonest species, followed by Great Shearwater Puffinus gravis, Cory's Calonectris diomedea, skuas Stercorarius spp. and Yellow‐nosed Albatross Diomedea...

Summary Serra da Capivara National Park covers an area of about 1,300 km 2 in south-eastern Piauí, north-eastern Brazil. The park's vegetation is the endemic caatinga, with a few remnants semi-deciduous forest some canyons. has reasonable diversity plants, 615 catalogued species. Since 1986, 208 bird species have been observed park and its buffer zone, including 10 threatened or near-threatened species, plus two recently extinct area. Other are regionally rare declined over parts their...
Summary The forests of the Angolan highlands are smallest and most isolated Afromontane centres endemism. Despite their high biodiversity value small, fragmented extent less than 200 ha, they remain entirely unprotected. Here we draw attention to uniqueness threats conservation. We specifically highlight importance Mt Moco bird conservation describe current forest cover condition. Sixty-four endemic/near-endemic species/subspecies taxa with populations associated western Angola. All 19...
-We studied the diet composition and overlap of Scarlet Ibises (Eudocimus ruber) Little Blue Herons (Egretta caerulea) in a mangrove swamp southeast Brazil during 1996-1997 breeding season, which occurs rainiest period. Crabs comprised 95% all prey taken by ibises 80% herons. Nevertheless, was small (-30%) due to feeding mostly on Uca spp. Eurythium limosum crabs, were from their burrows; herons fed arboreal semi-arboreal Aratus pisonii Metasesarma rubripes crabs. Divergent hunting...
The Caracarini falcons are among the most versatile birds of prey, and their variable diet includes fishes, which may be taken as carrion. However, fishing behaviour is described for two species. Here we describe Chimango Caracara (Milvago chimango) at an estuary in Chile, Pacific coast South America. caracara flew glided close to water surface, hovering on occasions. After such a hovering, bird plunged attempted snatch prey with its talons. If successful, carried fish talons landed adjacent...
Reintroduction can be enhanced by data from long-term post-release monitoring, which allows for modeling opportunities such as population viability analysis (PVA). PVA-relevant were gathered via monitoring of reintroduced red-billed curassows at the Guapiaçu Ecological Reserve (REGUA), located in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, over 25 months. In present article, we (1) assess robustness reintroduction plan, (2) evaluate current population, and (3) examine mitigation options to increase this...
Alcatrazes island and surrounding islets, 35 km from the mainland in southeastern Brazil, are a young archipelago created by rising sea levels around 7,000 years BP. The main covers 135 ha is only to harbour forest, four islets showing exposed rock, grasses sedges. A total of 82 species, which six breeding seabirds, has been recorded archipelago. Another 11 seabirds were documented waters islands. holds largest Magnificent Frigatebird, Fregata magnificens, colony southern Atlantic, as well...
-The breeding biology of the only Scarlet Ibis Eudocimus ruber colony in southeastern Brazil was studied during 1996-97 season. The ibises began to visit their site by mid-September. Nest building and egg laying took place early November synchronous, making first nesting pulse. Mean clutch size this pulse 2.45 eggs/nest, 0.67 young/nest reached age three weeks, when they were able walk about nest tree environs. Predation main cause failures (74% all losses), followed collapses (19%). A...
