Territory Size and Stability in a Sedentary Neotropical Passerine: Is Resource Partitioning a Necessary Condition?
J. Field Ornithol. 76(4):395±401, 2005 Territory size and stability in a sedentary neotropical passerine: is resource partitioning a necessary condition? Janet V. Gorrell,1 Gary Ritchison,1,3 and Eugene S. Morton2 1 Department of Biological Sciences, Eastern Kentucky University, Richmond, Kentucky 40475 USA 2 Hemlock Hill Field Station, 22318 Teepleville Flats Road, Cambridge Springs, Pennsylvania 16403 USA Received 9 April 2004; accepted 11 April 2005 ABSTRACT. Long-term pair bonds and defense of territories year-round are common among tropical passer- ines. The boundaries of these territories tend to be stable, perhaps re¯ecting the need to defend an area that, regardless of conditions, provides suf®cient food resources. If, however, these stable territories are not, even tem- porarily, suf®ciently large, then intra-pair competition for available food may result, particularly in species with no sexual size dimorphism. With such competition, sex-speci®c differences in foraging behavior may result. Male and female Dusky Antbirds (Cercomacra tyrannina) are not size dimorphic, and pairs jointly defend territories throughout the year. Our objective was to determine if paired Dusky Antbirds exhibited sex-speci®c differences in foraging behavior. Foraging antbirds were observed in central Panama from February±July 2002 to determine if pairs par- titioned food resources. Males and females exhibited no differences in foraging behavior, with individuals of both sexes foraging at similar heights and using the same foraging maneuvers (glean, probe, and sally) and substrates (leaves, rolled leaves, and woody surfaces). These results suggest that Dusky Antbirds do not partition resources and that territory switching, rather than resource partitioning, may be the means by which they gain access to additional food resources. -

Pantanal, Brazil 12Th July to 20Th July 2015
Pantanal, Brazil 12th July to 20th July 2015 Steve Firth Catherine Griffiths This trip was an attempt to see some mammal species that had eluded us on many previous visits to South America. Cats were the main focus, specifically Jaguar and Ocelot, and we were hoping for Giant Anteater as a bonus. When we started planning the trip some ten months in advance, the exchange rate was £1 = R$3.8. The pound strengthened considerably in the intervening period and was £1 = R$5.0 during the visit. This helped to appreciably reduce costs . We flew from London to Campo Grande via Sao Paulo with TAM. There was a 10 hour stopover, but the flight was a great deal cheaper than any offered by other Airlines. On the return leg we flew from Cuiaba to London again via Sao Paulo, again with a long layover. The total Cost per person was £943.35. TAM proved to be more efficient than we had expected (we had had a few memorable difficulties with VARIG 15 years previously) and can be recommended. The Campo Grande to Cuiaba leg was flown with AZUL, booked via their website. The rate quoted, R$546.50 (£70.84 each at the time of booking) for two people, was actually charged to our credit card as US Dollars $546.50. This was noticed immediately and after a call to AZUL in Brazil, they swiftly refunded the first charge and debited the correct amount. AZUL are a low cost carrier, but this was not reflected in their service or punctuality. -

Abstract: This study describes the results and collection practices for obtaining arthropod samples to be stud- ied as potential sources of new medicines in a bioprospecting effort. From 1994 to 1998, 1800 arthropod sam- ples of 6-10 g were collected in 21 sites of the Área de Conservación Guancaste (A.C.G) in Northwestern Costa Rica. The samples corresponded to 642 species distributed in 21 orders and 95 families. Most of the collections were obtained in the rainy season and in the tropical rainforest and dry forest of the ACG. Samples were obtained from a diversity of arthropod orders: 49.72% of the samples collected corresponded to Lepidoptera, 15.75% to Coleoptera, 13.33% to Hymenoptera, 11.43% to Orthoptera, 6.75% to Hemiptera, 3.20% to Homoptera and 7.89% to other groups. -

TOUR REPORT Southwestern Amazonia 2017 Final
For the first time on a Birdquest tour, the Holy Grail from the Brazilian Amazon, Rondonia Bushbird – male (Eduardo Patrial) BRAZIL’S SOUTHWESTERN AMAZONIA 7 / 11 - 24 JUNE 2017 LEADER: EDUARDO PATRIAL What an impressive and rewarding tour it was this inaugural Brazil’s Southwestern Amazonia. Sixteen days of fine Amazonian birding, exploring some of the most fascinating forests and campina habitats in three different Brazilian states: Rondonia, Amazonas and Acre. We recorded over five hundred species (536) with the exquisite taste of specialties from the Rondonia and Inambari endemism centres, respectively east bank and west bank of Rio Madeira. At least eight Birdquest lifer birds were acquired on this tour: the rare Rondonia Bushbird; Brazilian endemics White-breasted Antbird, Manicore Warbling Antbird, Aripuana Antwren and Chico’s Tyrannulet; also Buff-cheeked Tody-Flycatcher, Acre Tody-Tyrant and the amazing Rufous Twistwing. Our itinerary definitely put together one of the finest selections of Amazonian avifauna, though for a next trip there are probably few adjustments to be done. The pre-tour extension campsite brings you to very basic camping conditions, with company of some mosquitoes and relentless heat, but certainly a remarkable site for birding, the Igarapé São João really provided an amazing experience. All other sites 1 BirdQuest Tour Report: Brazil’s Southwestern Amazonia 2017 www.birdquest-tours.com visited on main tour provided considerably easy and very good birding. From the rich east part of Rondonia, the fascinating savannas and endless forests around Humaitá in Amazonas, and finally the impressive bamboo forest at Rio Branco in Acre, this tour focused the endemics from both sides of the medium Rio Madeira. -
Breeding Biology of Yellow-Browed Antbird Hypocnemis Hypoxantha
Daniel M. Brooks et al. 156 Bull. B.O.C. 2016 136(3) Breeding biology of Yellow-browed Antbird Hypocnemis hypoxantha by Daniel M. Brooks, Pablo Aibar, Pam Bucur, Ron Rossi & Harold F. Greeney Received 17 February 2016 Summary.—We provide novel data concerning the nests, eggs and parental care of Yellow-browed Antbird Hypocnemis hypoxantha based on two nests in eastern Ecuador and Peruvian Amazonia, one of which was video-taped. Both adults participated in incubation, with earliest and latest feeding events at 06.11 h and 17.22 h, respectively. Feeding behaviour is described, with intervals of 1–114 minutes (mean = 38.3 minutes) and tettigoniid cicadas the primary prey. Nestlings frequently produced faecal sacs (interval range = 4–132 minutes, mean = 37.8 minutes) immediately following food delivery, and the sac was always carried from the nest by an adult. Two events involving a parent bird being chased from the nest are described, the first involving a male Fulvous Antshrike Frederickena fulva. Systematics are discussed in light of nest morphology and architecture. Yellow-browed Antbird Hypocnemis hypoxantha is a distinctive Amazonian thamnophilid that comprises two currently recognised subspecies: nominate hypoxantha in western Amazonian lowland and foothill forests from southern Colombia south to central Peru, and H. h. ochraceiventris in south-east Amazonian Brazil (Zimmer & Isler 2003). Generally found below 400 m, the nominate subspecies occasionally ranges as high as 900 m (Zimmer & Isler 2003, Ridgely & Tudor 2009). The species’ reproductive biology is almost completely unknown (Zimmer & Isler 2003). Willis (1988) provided a cursory description of a nest with nestlings from Colombia, but included few details of the nest and no description of the eggs or behaviour. -

Brookings, South Dakota, U.S.A. II Universidade Federal do Paraná. Palotina, Paraná, Brasil III James Cook University. Townsville, Queensland, Austrália IVLancaster University. Lancaster, Lancashire, Inglaterra Abstract: This paper describes the avifauna sampled at the São Luiz farm, in Northern Mato Grosso State, a Southern Brazilian Amazonian forest site. The avifauna was sampled at forested and open sites, between 29 June and 27 July 2008, using point counts, mist-nets and general observations. We recorded 194 bird species within 18 orders and 46 families. The records of this study expanded the known range limits of at least 16 bird species. Despite the need for sampling in other seasons, the rarefaction curves indicate a representative sampling effort. The bird community observed at this site contains most of the species typically associated with Amazonian forests, south of the Amazon, and suggests that ‘transitional forests’ found at this site should be qualified as ‘Amazonian’ when considering their legal status. Our data highlights the importance of this anthropogenically-impacted and poorly-known region of Amazonia. Keywords: Bird checklist. Amazonian Birds. Northern Mato Grosso. Southern Amazon. Resumo: Este estudo descreve a avifauna amostrada na fazenda São Luiz, norte do estado do Mato Grosso, uma área de floresta localizada no sul da Amazônia brasileira. -
