  • A Brazilian Merganser Mergus Octosetaceus Nest in a Rock Crevice, with Reproductive Notes Ivana Reis Lamas and Jean Pierre Santos Cotinga 22 (2004): 38–41
    Cotinga 22 A Brazilian Merganser Mergus octosetaceus nest in a rock crevice, with reproductive notes Ivana Reis Lamas and Jean Pierre Santos Cotinga 22 (2004): 38–41 Um ninho de pato-mergulhão Mergus octosetaceus foi encontrado em fenda de paredão rochoso no Parque Nacional da Serra da Canastra, estado de Minas Gerais, Brasil. Cerca de 20 dias após sua descoberta, o ninho foi visitado para medição e pesagem dos ovos e acompanhamento do comporta- mento parental. Nesta ocasião, os sete ovos estavam muito frios e a fêmea não foi localizada. A presença do macho chamando por ela toda manhã nos faz acreditar que ela possa ter morrido, e não abandonado o ninho. Até o presente, havia registro de apenas um ninho desta espécie, encontrado em cavidade de árvore na mata ciliar em Misiones, Argentina, em 1956. Sendo o único registro de ninho para a espécie, acreditava-se que o pato-mergulhão fosse dependente de mata ciliar com árvores de grande porte para sua reprodução. O registro aqui apresentado é de fundamental importância para a conservação e manejo da espécie. Brazilian Merganser Mergus octosetaceus is one of found the female incubating. The eggs were laid in the most endangered bird species in Brazil and the a depression in the rock, and the female did not world5,7,12.

  • Natural History and Conservation of Brazilian Merganser Mergus Octosetaceus at Serra Da Canastra National Park, Minas Gerais, Brazil
    Bird Conservation International (2001) 11:287–300. BirdLife International 2001 Natural history and conservation of Brazilian Merganser Mergus octosetaceus at Serra da Canastra National Park, Minas Gerais, Brazil LUI´SFA´ BIO SILVEIRA and WOLF DIETER BARTMANN Summary Brazilian Merganser Mergus octosetaceus is considered to be one of the rarest and most threatened species in the Neotropical region, yet little is known about its distribution and life-history. We studied the population of Brazilian Merganser in and around Serra da Canastra National Park(SCNP) in Minas Gerais, Brazil, during 1996, with additional observations from 1997 to 2000. In this paper we report the sighting of previously undiscovered pairs and present some new behavioural data, including a description of calls performed by males and females, feeding behaviour, home ranges, parental care and population density. We also describe a previously unreported plumage of the young. A total of 39 individuals were recorded, comprising 12 adults (six pairs) and 27 young. Brood size ranged from two to four (mean 2.7), being smaller than in other Mergus spp. (e.g. Goosander Mergus merganser). Two pairs were located within the SCNP, and four on unprotected stretches of river outside. Home range was large compared with other Mergus spp., each pair using on average 9 km of river. Range size was thought to be related to the availability of suitable nesting and feeding sites. SCNP and its environs contain very little mature gallery forest with trees large enough to provide nest sites (most having been selectively logged in the past). There is also competition for nest sites with other birds and mammals.

  • A New Anseriform Genus and Species from the Nebraska Pliocene
    A NEW ANSERIFORM GENUS AND SPECIES FROM THE NEBRASKA PLIOCENE LESTER L. SHORT AMONGavian fossilson loan to me from the University of Nebraska State Museumis the tarsometatarsusof a goose-likeanseriform bird from the early Plioceneof Nebraska. The tarsometatarsushas somefeatures of geeseand swans,and of the anatinetribe Tadornini,but it alsotends somewhattoward the Cairinini in someof its features. Comparisonwith extant and fossilAnseriformes in the American Museum of Natural History and the United States National Museum and a study of the literature have convincedme that this tarsometatarsusrepresents an undescribed speciesthat is sufficientlydistinct to warrant placementin a new genus. I thank the authoritiesof the above-mentionedmuseum for their help in conductingmy studies.I am gratefulto CharlesG. Sibley,who originally borrowedthe fossil,for permissionto studyit. It is a pleasureto acknowl- edgethe aid of C. B. Schultzfor the loan of the material, and H. B. Gundersonof the Universityof NebraskaState Museumfor usefulinfor- mationconcerning the fossil. The use and potential importance of stereophotographyin avian paleontologyhas beendiscussed by Cracraft (1968: 3-4). I hope the stereophotographsreproduced here will facilitatecomparisons by avian paleontologists. Heteroehen, new genus Type of genus.--Heterochenpratensis, new species.
