												Estudios Autecológicos En Pristidactylus Cf. Valeriae (Squamata, Polychridae) De Chile Central
Bol. Mus. Nac. Hist. Nat. Chile, 44: 115-130 (1993) ESTUDIOS AUTECOLÓGICOS EN PRISTIDACTYLUS CF. VALERIAE (SQUAMATA, POLYCHRIDAE) DE CHILE CENTRAL JUAN SUFÁN-CATALÁN* y HERMAN NÚÑEZ** Sede Norte, Facultad de Medicina, Depto. de Biología Celular y Genética, Universidad de Chile, Casilla 70061, C.7. Santiago, Chile. Sección Zoología, Museo Nacional de Historia Natural, Casilla 787, Santiago, Chile. RESUMEN Hemos realizado un estudio autecológico en una población de Pristidactylus cf. valeriae de la zona central de Chile. Consideramos período de actividad, selección de microhábitat, hábitos alimentarios. A estas variables les calculamos la diversidad del uso del recurso con el índice de Levins. Además registramos altura de percha, distancia crítica de huida y temperaturas corporales, asociadas a temperaturas abióticas del aire y del sustrato. Agrega mos un estudio morfológico analizado por la distancia euclidiana a la que aplicamos tratamientos de UPGMA para realizar un dendrograma que revelara las afinidades morfo lógicas entre la especie en estudio y aquellas que han sido descritas previamente. Además de los análisis anteriores, realizamos cariotipos de esta especie con técnicas estándar (Giemsa corriente) y Bandeo C. Los resultados revelan a esta especie como de hábitos saxícolas, con actividad diaria monomodal entre las 12 y las 18 horas, y hábitos alimentarios con tendencia a ingerir coléopteros, aunque esta preferencia se discute. La temperatura corporal de ella no se muestra diferente de la señalada en la literatura para otras especies del género y desde el punto de vista conductual de la selección de altura de percha, no aparecen diferencias significativas entre las hembras, los juveniles y los machos aunque se sugiere que estos últimos tendrían tendencia a estar en perchas más altas, exhibiendo conductas territoriales que se manifiestan vigorosamente. - 
												
												Lagartos Pristidactylus En El Bosque Esclerófilo

En esta nota documentamos a P. torquatus en ambientes esclerófilos. Presentamos evidencias fotográficas. Se discute acerca de esta presunta innovación y se especula acerca de este hecho. Palabras claves: Región Bernardo O`Higgins, Colchagua, Chimbarongo, calentamiento global, distribución, hábitat, Leiosauridae, Nothofagus ABSTRACT Pristidactylus lizards in sclerophyllous forest. Recent invasion or was it always like this? The species of the genus Pristidactylus in Chile are traditionally linked with deciduous forest, except P. volcanensis; in this paper we document P. torquatus in sclerophyll environments. We present graphics evidences. We discuss about this presumptive innovation and speculate about this. Key words: Bernardo O`Higgins Region, Colchagua, Chimbarongo, distribution, global warming, habitat, Leiosauridae, Nothofagus El género de lagartos anoloides Pristidactylus se distribuye en América del Sur, en Argentina y Chile (Cei 1986, Cei et al. 2004; Scolaro 2005, 2006) . En Chile este género aparece como un grupo reducido de especies (sólo cuatro) que exhiben una marcada relación con los bosques caducifolios de Nothofagus (Bosque de Hoja Caduca sensu Gajardo 1994). La especie más septentrional, P. alvaroi (Donoso-Barros, 1974) habita en el cerro El Roble y se extiende hasta Los Amarillos, en Chicauma (Núñez y Gálvez 2015); un poco más al sur habita P. -

												Raptor Migration in the Neotropics: Patterns, Processes, and Consequences
ORNITOLOGIA NEOTROPICAL 15 (Suppl.): 83–99, 2004 © The Neotropical Ornithological Society RAPTOR MIGRATION IN THE NEOTROPICS: PATTERNS, PROCESSES, AND CONSEQUENCES Keith L. Bildstein Hawk Mountain Sanctuary Acopian Center, 410 Summer Valley Road, Orwigsburg, Pennsylvania 17961, USA. E-mail: [email protected] Resumen. – Migración de rapaces en el Neotrópico: patrones, procesos y consecuencias. – El Neotró- pico alberga poblaciones reproductivas y no reproductivas de 104 de las 109 especies de rapaces del Nuevo Mundo (i.e., miembros del suborden Falconides y de la subfamilia Cathartinae), incluyendo 4 migrantes obligatorios, 36 migrantes parciales, 28 migrantes irregulares o locales, y 36 especies que se presume que no migran. Conteos estandarizados de migración visible iniciados en la década de los 1990, junto con una recopilación de literatura, nos proveen con una idea general de la migración de rapaces en la región. Aquí describo los movimientos de las principales especies migratorias y detallo la geografía de la migración en el Neotrópico. El Corredor Terrestre Mesoamericano es la ruta de migración mas utilizada en la región. Tres especies que se reproducen en el Neártico, el Elanio Colinegro (Ictina mississippiensis), el Gavilán Aludo (Buteo platypterus) y el Gavilán de Swainson (B. swainsoni), de los cuales todos son migrantes obligatorios, junto con las poblaciones norteamericanas del Zopilote Cabecirrojo (Cathartes aura), dominan numérica- mente este vuelo norteño o “boreal”. Cantidades mucho menores de Aguilas Pescadoras (Pandion haliaetus), Elanios Tijereta (Elanoides forficatus), Esmerejónes (Falco columbarius) y Halcones Peregrinos (Falco peregrinus), ingresan y abandonan el Neotrópico rutinariamente utilizando rutas que atraviesan el Mar Caribe y el Golfo de México. Los movimientos sureños o “australes” e intra-tropicales, incluyendo la dispersión y la colonización en respuesta a cambios en el hábitat, son conocidos pero permanecen relativamente poco estudiados. -

												TRIP REPORT 8 Days Central Chile Jon Frentzen
A REPORT FOR A BIRDING TRIP 7 DAYS IN CENTRAL CHILE January 22 th – 27 th + February 9 th 2011 Trip Leader: Fabrice Schmitt Participant: Jon Franzen Always surrounded by amazing landscapes, Chile offers the most scenic birding in South America and some of the most beautiful birds. Travelling to Chile to write a story for the New Yorker, Jon decided to add a few days to his professional trip to bird as much as possible. Before to meet him in Santiago, Jon just did a few days in Patagonia and after our 6 days in Central Chile, Jon flew to the Juan Fernandez Islands. On the way back from the islands, we did a last day together, looking for the sought-after Diademed Sandpiper Plover and a few more species we haven’t seen yet. Here is a report for the species seen during the 7 days we spent together. A fantastic trip actually, with 151 species seen and lots of fun!! The highlights of the trip were excellent views on all Chilean Tapaculos, 3 Rufous-tailed Hawk seen very well, 7 Black Rails (mostly heard), the stunning Diademed Sandpiper Plover, a close view of a singing Chilean Tinamou, the recently splitted Ticking Doradito, and all the endemic species present in Central Chile!! If you want to see pictures of Chilean birds visit the Fabrice’s gallery: http://www.flickr.com/photos/fabrice-schmitt/ ITINERARY January 22 nd , Yerba Loca, Farellones, Valle Nevado Early start to the Yerba Loca reserve. A good beginning with already some good endemics like Moustached Turca, Dusky-tailed Canastero, Chilean Mockingbird, and even a White-throated Tapaculo! Around Farellones, we had good views on a few Condors, Rufous-banded Miners, a Black-billed Shrike-tyrant and even a few Black-faced Ibis. - 
												
												Breeding Biology of Neotropical Accipitriformes: Current Knowledge and Research Priorities
Revista Brasileira de Ornitologia 26(2): 151–186. ARTICLE June 2018 Breeding biology of Neotropical Accipitriformes: current knowledge and research priorities Julio Amaro Betto Monsalvo1,3, Neander Marcel Heming2 & Miguel Ângelo Marini2 1 Programa de Pós-graduação em Ecologia, IB, Universidade de Brasília, Brasília, DF, Brazil. 2 Departamento de Zoologia, IB, Universidade de Brasília, Brasília, DF, Brazil. 3 Corresponding author: [email protected] Received on 08 March 2018. Accepted on 20 July 2018. ABSTRACT: Despite the key role that knowledge on breeding biology of Accipitriformes plays in their management and conservation, survey of the state-of-the-art and of information gaps spanning the entire Neotropics has not been done since 1995. We provide an updated classification of current knowledge about breeding biology of Neotropical Accipitridae and define the taxa that should be prioritized by future studies. We analyzed 440 publications produced since 1995 that reported breeding of 56 species. There is a persistent scarcity, or complete absence, of information about the nests of eight species, and about breeding behavior of another ten. Among these species, the largest gap of breeding data refers to the former “Leucopternis” hawks. Although 66% of the 56 evaluated species had some improvement on knowledge about their breeding traits, research still focus disproportionately on a few regions and species, and the scarcity of breeding data on many South American Accipitridae persists. We noted that analysis of records from both a citizen science digital database and museum egg collections significantly increased breeding information on some species, relative to recent literature. We created four groups of priority species for breeding biology studies, based on knowledge gaps and threat categories at global level. -
