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...
Abstract Aim Macroecological analyses provide valuable insights into factors that influence how parasites are distributed across space and among hosts. Amid large uncertainties arise when generalizing from local regional findings, hierarchical approaches applied to global datasets required determine whether drivers of parasite infection patterns vary scales. We assessed haemosporidian infections a broad diversity avian host clades zoogeographical realms depict hotspots prevalence identify...
Secondary contact between species often results in the formation of a hybrid zone, with eventual fates hybridizing dependent on evolutionary and ecological forces. We examine this process Amazon Basin by conducting first genomic phenotypic characterization zone formed after secondary two obligate army-ant-followers: White-breasted Antbird (Rhegmatorhina hoffmannsi) Harlequin berlepschi). found major geographic displacement (∼120 km) mitochondrial nuclear clines, we explore potential...
ABSTRACT The Atlantic Forest has one of the richest avifaunas in world, with endemic, migratory and endangered taxa. However, some ornithological knowledge produced there yet to be organized published, hindering effective conservation actions. For example, a study concluded 2005 documented 213 species for Parque das Neblinas (PN), private reserve located Serra do Mar state São Paulo, Brazil, but been no update since. We retrieved, organized, technically evaluated data PN over last 20 years,...
O estado e o município de São Paulo estão entre as regiões mais estudadas ornitologicamente do Brasil parte dessas informações foram produzidas nos séculos XIX XX nas várzeas da cidade Paulo. Esses estudos retornaram a partir década 1980 são extrema relevância, pois crescimento urbano levou muitas espécies possíveis extinções regionais. Nesse contexto, destaca-se Parque Linear Nove Julho (PLNJ), uma área verde municipal localizada na represa Guarapiranga, sul Foram produzidos, resgatados,...
The breeding grounds of the Black-billed Cuckoo Coccyzus erythropthalmus encompass a wide area in northern North America. During austral winter individuals migrate to non-breeding areas South There had been only three known locations for species Brazil, two Amazon Forest and one Atlantic Forest. Here, we aim present new records Brazil organize available literature recovering historical data. are Southeast regions thus represent first documented outside Brazilian Amazon. These findings...
Abstract The great black hawk is widely distributed in South America, including Brazil and the state of São Paulo, but it uncommon region city Paulo (Grande Paulo), largest urban area America. We compiled, organized, analyzed available records species for this highly urbanized literature, ornithological databases, online birdwatching platforms, produced field data. obtained 13 from four locations between 2018 2024. All were associated with humid flooded environments, mainly artificial...
Determining the prevalence and local transmission dynamics of parasitic organisms are necessary to understand ability parasites persist in host populations disperse across regions, yet dynamics, diversity, distribution haemosporidian remain poorly understood. We studied prevalence, distributions avian genera
South American dry forests have a complex and poorly understood biogeographic history. Based on the fragmented distribution of many Neotropical forest species, it has been suggested that this biome was more widely distributed contiguous under drier climate conditions in Pleistocene. To test scenario, known as Pleistocene Arc Hypothesis, we studied phylogeography Rufous-fronted Thornbird (Phacellodomus rufifrons), widespread bird with disjunct closely matching itself. We sequenced mtDNA used...
Four species of pumpkin toadlets are currently recognized by the extreme condition hyperossification in skull and vertebral column within genus Brachycephalus. In addition to their larger body size, relative other congeneric species, Brachycephalus darkside, ephippium, garbeanus, margaritatus share remarkable osteological features, such as large paravertebral plates forming an ornamented dorsal bone shield, visible through integument. We add current knowledge this group analyzing its...
We identified the 30% most-important forest remnants for conservation in Atlantic Forest domain South America based on three bird diversity components: (1) overall species potential distribution, (2) distribution of threatened species, and (3) functional traits. evaluated extent overlap among priority areas using different approaches analysed efficiency current Protected Areas network at protecting biodiversity future (2040 2080) climate scenarios. The most important is low components all...
The Atlantic Forest in eastern South America harbors 849 bird species, of which 216 are endemic and 122 threatened with extinction. It is also one the 25 biodiversity hotspots recognized throughout world. Within this biome, Serra do Mar stands out as an important area endemism America. Nonetheless, ornithological knowledge remains underestimated incomplete. One lacunae information for a region called Curucutu, adjacent to largest urban avifauna Curucutu has been sampled occasionally since...
Abstract Migratory birds are implicated in dispersing haemosporidian parasites over great geographic distances. However, their role sharing these vector-transmitted blood with resident avian host species along migration flyway is not well understood. We studied 10 localities where Chilean Elaenia, a long-distance Neotropical austral migrant species, spends part of its annual cycle to determine local parasite transmission among sympatric the elaenia's distributional range across South...
A Estação Ecológica Serra Geral do Tocantins (EESGT) é uma das maiores Unidades de Conservação dentro Bioma Cerrado. avifauna desta UC foi inventariada entre os dias 25 janeiro e 15 fevereiro 2008. Durante esse trabalho buscou-se amostrar diferentes hábitats encontrados na EESGT, bem como algumas localidades no entorno. Além registros auditivos visuais foram utilizadas redes-de-neblina armas fogo para coletas material testemunho, que se encontra depositado coleção ornitológica Museu Zoologia...
Stretching for more than 10,000 ha in the Metropolitan Area of São Paulo, southeastern Brazil, Serra da Cantareira comprises largest native urban rainforest World, harboring a rich and diverse Atlantic Forest avifauna. Despite its closeness to major areas, few bird surveys have been conducted there. In this article we present an updated compilation all species recorded Cantareira, including personal records from authors. A total 326 since 1901; these, nine not sighted there last two decades....
