  • Bird Responses to Shade Coffee Production
    Animal Conservation (2004) 7, 169–179 C 2004 The Zoological Society of London. Printed in the United Kingdom DOI:10.1017/S1367943004001258 Bird responses to shade coffee production Cesar´ Tejeda-Cruz and William J. Sutherland Centre for Ecology, Evolution and Conservation, School of Biological Sciences, University of East Anglia, Norwich NR4 7TJ, UK (Received 2 June 2003; accepted 16 October 2003) Abstract It has been documented that certain types of shade coffee plantations have both biodiversity levels similar to natural forest and high concentrations of wintering migratory bird species. These findings have triggered a campaign to promote shade coffee as a means of protecting Neotropical migratory birds. Bird censuses conducted in the El Triunfo Biosphere reserve in southern Mexico have confirmed that shade coffee plantations may have bird diversity levels similar to, or higher than, natural forest. However, coffee and forest differed in species composition. Species with a high sensitivity to disturbance were significantly more diverse and abundant in primary ecosystems. Neotropical migratory birds, granivorous and omnivorous species were more abundant in disturbed habitats. Insectivorous bird species were less abundant only in shaded monoculture. Foraging generalists and species that prefer the upper foraging stratum were more abundant in disturbed habitats, while a decline in low and middle strata foragers was found there. Findings suggests that shade coffee may be beneficial for generalist species (including several migratory species), but poor for forest specialists. Although shade coffee plantations may play an important role in maintaining local biodiversity, and as buffer areas for forest patches, promotion of shade coffee may lead to the transformation of forest into shade coffee, with the consequent loss of forest species.

Box 50007, SE-104 05 Stockholm, Sweden b Department of Zoology, University of Stockholm, SE-106 91 Stockholm, Sweden c Zoological Museum, University of Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark Received 29 August 2001; received in revised form 17 January 2002 Abstract Based on their highly specialized ‘‘tracheophone’’ syrinx, the avian families Furnariidae (ovenbirds), Dendrocolaptidae (woodcreepers), Formicariidae (ground antbirds), Thamnophilidae (typical antbirds), Rhinocryptidae (tapaculos), and Conop- ophagidae (gnateaters) have long been recognized to constitute a monophyletic group of suboscine passerines. However, the monophyly of these families have been contested and their interrelationships are poorly understood, and this constrains the pos- sibilities for interpreting adaptive tendencies in this very diverse group. In this study we present a higher-level phylogeny and classification for the tracheophone birds based on phylogenetic analyses of sequence data obtained from 32 ingroup taxa. Both mitochondrial (cytochrome b) and nuclear genes (c-myc, RAG-1, and myoglobin) have been sequenced, and more than 3000 bp were subjected to parsimony and maximum-likelihood analyses. The phylogenetic signals in the mitochondrial and nuclear genes were compared and found to be very similar. The results from the analysis of the combined dataset (all genes, but with transitions at third codon positions in the cytochrome b excluded) partly corroborate previous phylogenetic hypotheses, but several novel arrangements were also suggested.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract We investigated if passerine birds act as important predators of small vertebrates within the Neotropics. We surveyed published studies on bird diets, and information on labels of museum specimens, compiling data on the contents of 5,221 stomachs. Eighteen samples (0.3%) presented evidence of predation on vertebrates. Our bibliographic survey also provided records of 203 passerine species preying upon vertebrates, mainly frogs and lizards. Our data suggest that vertebrate predation by passerines is relatively uncommon in the Neotropics and not characteristic of any family. On the other hand, although rare, the ability to prey on vertebrates seems to be widely distributed among Neotropical passerines, which may respond opportunistically to the stimulus of a potential food item.

Moreover, in a narrow zone of sympatry we found that they showed differential responses to the songs of their own vs. the other form. However, we did not present the differences in plumage and morphometrics in detail, and did not make a formal taxonomic recommendation regarding their taxonomic status.

  • Divergence in Nest Placement and Parental Care of Neotropical Foliage‐Gleaners and Treehunters (Furnariidae: Philydorini)

The Neotropical ovenbirds (Furnariidae) are an adaptive radiation of suboscines renowned for the diversity of their nests. Like most altricial insectivores, they generally exhibit biparental care. One tribe, Philydorini, includes 46 species thought to nest in either underground burrows or tree cavities, nest types traditionally treated as equivalent in phylogenetic studies. Their parental care systems are poorly known, but could help illuminate how uniparental care – typically associated with frugivory – can arise in insectivores. We examined the extent to which nest placement, parental care, and associated reproductive traits map onto two major clades of Philydorini identified by genetic hypotheses. We review published literature and present new information from the Atlantic Forest of Argentina, including the first nest descriptions for Ochre-breasted Foliage-gleaners (Anabacerthia lichtensteini) and Sharp-billed Treehunters (Heliobletus contaminatus). In the Automolus-Thripadectes-Clibanornis clade (including Philydor rufum), 134 of 138 reported nests were in underground burrows. In the Syndactyla-Anabacerthia-Anabazenops clade (including Heliobletus, Philydor atricapillus, and Philydor erythrocercum), 44 of 48 nests were in tree cavities.

  • The Role of Size Assortment in Structuring Neotropical Bird Communities
    Brooks, D.M. 2003. The role of size assortment in structuring Neotropical bird communities. Tx. J. Sci. 55: 59-74. THE ROLE OF SIZE ASSORTMENT IN STRUCTURING NEOTROPICAL BIRD COMMUNITIES Daniel M. Brooks Houston Museum of Natural Science; Department of Vertebrate Zoology; One Hermann Circle Dr.; Houston, Texas 77030-1799, USA ABSTRACT - I tested confamilial size assortment at three different latitudes, representing a gradient of productivity and stability: the northern subtropics (Rio Grande Valley), the equatorial zone (Amazonian Peru) and the austral subtropics (Paraguayan Chaco). Size assortment is the likely diminished persistence of a species by presence of morphologically similar species; temporally synchronous and spatially sympatric species competing for similar resources should exhibit distinct characters in ecomorphological space, molded over time to reduce the chance of competition. Despite least intensive sampling effort at the Amazon site, it is the most speciose (238 species, 78 common) compared to the Chaco (147, 76) and Rio Grande (61, 24) sites. Size assortment was tested by comparing mean mandibular measurements of confamilials in a real pool against those in a null pool. The pattern of size assortment was pervasive in 68% of the 22 families tested, with most being animal consumers or omnivores, represented by a high percentage of insectivores. EL PAPEL DE LA VARIEDAD DE TAMAÑO EN LA ESTRUCTURACIÓN DE LAS COMUNIDADES DE AVES NEOTROPICALES - La variedad del tamaño confamiliar (miembros de la misma familia) fue probada en tres latitudes diferentes representando un gradiente de productividad y estabilidad: el subtrópico septentrional (Valle del Río Grande), la zona ecuatorial (Amazonas peruano) y el subtrópico austral (Chaco paraguayo).
