Abstract Book Welcome to the Ornithological Congress of the Americas! Puerto Iguazú, Misiones, Argentina, from 8–11 August, 2017 Puerto Iguazú is located in the heart of the interior Atlantic Forest and is the portal to the Iguazú Falls, one of the world’s Seven Natural Wonders and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The area surrounding Puerto Iguazú, the province of Misiones and neighboring regions of Paraguay and Brazil offers many scenic attractions and natural areas such as Iguazú National Park, and provides unique opportunities for birdwatching. Over 500 species have been recorded, including many Atlantic Forest endemics like the Blue Manakin (Chiroxiphia caudata), the emblem of our congress. This is the first meeting collaboratively organized by the Association of Field Ornithologists, Sociedade Brasileira de Ornitologia and Aves Argentinas, and promises to be an outstanding professional experience for both students and researchers. The congress will feature workshops, symposia, over 400 scientific presentations, 7 internationally renowned plenary speakers, and a celebration of 100 years of Aves Argentinas! Enjoy the book of abstracts!

VIÇOSA MINAS GERAIS – BRASIL 2016 Aos professores, que mesmo diante de tanta dificuldade, resistem na arte de educar. ii “Pois as asas de um coração sonhador ninguém irá roubar" Pegasus Fantasy - Angra iii AGRADECIMENTOS Muitas foram as pessoas que me ajudaram a construir esta dissertação. O mínimo que posso fazer é dar crédito a cada uma, com humildade e apreço. Antes das pessoas, meu primeiro agradecimento vai à natureza, que nos ensina sobre resiliência e está aqui para todos aproveitarem. Sem ela, não seríamos tão felizes. Começo do início, agradecendo ao Willian e ao Getulinho, que, na Rua da Conceição, me ensinaram a amar os bichos. Suas fitas sobre o Jacques Cousteau me abriram ainda mais o olhar para a biologia, mesmo eu com 8 anos de idade. Agradeço imensamente meus professores do ensino fundamental e médio, Hélio, Rossi, Andréia, Patrícia, JC e, principalmente VC, que em uma aula me abriu os olhos e a mente ao comentar a tristeza que é a falta de esforço dos alunos com quem trabalhava, mesmo sendo mentes inteligentes e capazes de alcançar o mundo. Aquilo me atingiu profundamente. Muito obrigado. Devo toda a minha felicidade, alegria, e todos e quaisquer adjetivos que remetam às coisas boas durante minha vida em Viçosa à República Valhalla.

Montaldo Received: 23 July 2010 / Accepted: 15 July 2011 / Published online: 24 July 2011 Ó Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2011 Abstract In this paper we summarize for the first time the effects of agriculture expansion and intensification on animal diversity in the Pampas of Argentina and discuss research needs for biodiversity conservation in the area. The Pampas experienced little human intervention until the last decades of the 19th century. Agriculture expanded quickly during the 20th century, transforming grasslands into cropland and pasture lands and converting the landscape into a mosaic of natural fragments, agricultural fields, and linear habitats. In the 1980s, agriculture intensification and replacement of cattle grazing- cropping systems by continuous cropping promoted a renewed homogenisation of the most productive areas. Birds and carnivores were more strongly affected than rodents and insects, but responses varied within groups: (a) the geographic ranges and/or abundances of many native species were reduced, including those of carnivores, herbivores, and specialist species (grassland-adapted birds and rodents, and probably specialized pollinators), sometimes leading to regional extinction (birds and large carnivores), (b) other native species were unaffected (birds) or benefited (bird, rodent and possibly generalist pollinator and crop-associated insect species), (c) novel species were introduced, thus increasing species richness of most groups (26% of non-rodent mammals, 11.1% of rodents, 6.2% of birds, 0.8% of pollinators).

  • Vocal Repertoire of the Long-Tailed Manakin and Its Relation to Male-Male Cooperation’

TRAINER Department of Biology, Universityof Northern Iowa, Cedar Falls, IA 50614 DAVID B. MCDONALD ArchboldBiological Station, P.O. Box 2057, Lake Placid, FL 33852 Abstract. We examined the vocal repertoire of lek-mating Long-tailed Manakins (Chi- roxiphia linearis, Pipridae) in Monteverde, Costa Rica. Males in this genusare unusualin performing a cooperativecourtship display, including duet songsand coordinateddual-male dance displays. Males give at least 13 distinct vocalizations, several of which occur in clear behavioral contexts. By observing the behavioral context and the sequencein which calls were given, we found that the most frequent calls occurred during three types of activity: song bouts, dance, and noncourtship interactions. The responsesof males to playback of six vocalizations indicated that the calls function as much in mediating cooperative inter- actions as in expressingmale-male agonism. The evolution of the large vocal repertoire in Long-tailed Manakins may be associatedwith their unique social system based on long- term, cooperative relationshipsamong males. Key words: Vocalization;call function; Long-tailed Manakin; Chiroxiphia linearis; so- ciality; cooperation,lek. Resumen.

  • Brazil's Eastern Amazonia
    The loud and impressive White Bellbird, one of the many highlights on the Brazil’s Eastern Amazonia 2017 tour (Eduardo Patrial) BRAZIL’S EASTERN AMAZONIA 8/16 – 26 AUGUST 2017 LEADER: EDUARDO PATRIAL This second edition of Brazil’s Eastern Amazonia was absolutely a phenomenal trip with over five hundred species recorded (514). Some adjustments happily facilitated the logistics (internal flights) a bit and we also could explore some areas around Belem this time, providing some extra good birds to our list. Our time at Amazonia National Park was good and we managed to get most of the important targets, despite the quite low bird activity noticed along the trails when we were there. Carajas National Forest on the other hand was very busy and produced an overwhelming cast of fine birds (and a Giant Armadillo!). Caxias in the end came again as good as it gets, and this time with the novelty of visiting a new site, Campo Maior, a place that reminds the lowlands from Pantanal. On this amazing tour we had the chance to enjoy the special avifauna from two important interfluvium in the Brazilian Amazon, the Madeira – Tapajos and Xingu – Tocantins; and also the specialties from a poorly covered corner in the Northeast region at Maranhão and Piauí states. Check out below the highlights from this successful adventure: Horned Screamer, Masked Duck, Chestnut- headed and Buff-browed Chachalacas, White-crested Guan, Bare-faced Curassow, King Vulture, Black-and- white and Ornate Hawk-Eagles, White and White-browed Hawks, Rufous-sided and Russet-crowned Crakes, Dark-winged Trumpeter (ssp.

Althought it has low population density and is remote from big cities, in the past it received well-deserved attention from researchers. This was probably due to the presence of many interesting species, among them some threatened, with taxonomic singularities, and/or endemism.
