Peru: from the Cusco Andes to the Manu
The critically endangered Royal Cinclodes - our bird-of-the-trip (all photos taken on this tour by Pete Morris) PERU: FROM THE CUSCO ANDES TO THE MANU 26 JULY – 12 AUGUST 2017 LEADERS: PETE MORRIS and GUNNAR ENGBLOM This brand new itinerary really was a tour of two halves! For the frst half of the tour we really were up on the roof of the world, exploring the Andes that surround Cusco up to altitudes in excess of 4000m. Cold clear air and fantastic snow-clad peaks were the order of the day here as we went about our task of seeking out a number of scarce, localized and seldom-seen endemics. For the second half of the tour we plunged down off of the mountains and took the long snaking Manu Road, right down to the Amazon basin. Here we traded the mountainous peaks for vistas of forest that stretched as far as the eye could see in one of the planet’s most diverse regions. Here, the temperatures rose in line with our ever growing list of sightings! In all, we amassed a grand total of 537 species of birds, including 36 which provided audio encounters only! As we all know though, it’s not necessarily the shear number of species that counts, but more the quality, and we found many high quality species. New species for the Birdquest life list included Apurimac Spinetail, Vilcabamba Thistletail, Am- pay (still to be described) and Vilcabamba Tapaculos and Apurimac Brushfnch, whilst other montane goodies included the stunning Bearded Mountaineer, White-tufted Sunbeam the critically endangered Royal Cinclodes, 1 BirdQuest Tour Report: Peru: From the Cusco Andes to The Manu 2017 www.birdquest-tours.com These wonderful Blue-headed Macaws were a brilliant highlight near to Atalaya. -

ABSTRACT.— A group of several Andean Parakeet (Bolborhynchus orbygnesius) individuals was observed, photographed and tape-recorded at Finca El Candado, near Los Cardones National Park, Salta Province, northwestern Argentina. There is no previously published record of Andean Parakeet from south of Cochabamba, Bolivia, although there is a tape-recording from Tarija, Bo- livia, which is about 350 km north-northwest of Finca El Candado. Additionally, there is an un- documented record of a group of birds 218 km north-northwest of Finca El Candado, between Valle Colorado and Santa Ana, in Jujuy Province, Argentina. Birds were coming to roost in a large stick nest that did not look like any described nest. -
Animals of the Cloud Forest: Isotopic Variation of Archaeological Faunal Remains from Kuelap, Peru
ANIMALS OF THE CLOUD FOREST: ISOTOPIC VARIATION OF ARCHAEOLOGICAL FAUNAL REMAINS FROM KUELAP, PERU by SAMANTHA MARIE MICHELL B.S. Idaho State University, 2014 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Anthropology in the College of Sciences at the University of Central Florida Orlando, Florida Summer Term 2018 © 2018 Samantha Michell ii ABSTRACT Stable isotopic analyses of faunal remains are used as a proxy for reconstructing the ancient Chachapoya dietary environment of the northeastern highlands in Peru. Archaeologists have excavated animal remains from refuse piles at the monumental center of Kuelap (AD 900-1535). This archaeological site is located at 3000 meters above sea level (m.a.s.l.), where C3 plants dominate the region. The study presented here is one of the few in the Central Andes that uses faunal remains to develop local isotopic baselines, reconstruct resource exploitation, and provide insight into dietary variation. Bone collagen stable carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) isotopes are used to investigate animal diets of nine local fauna (Camelidae, Cervidae, Caviidae, Chinchillidae, Cuniculidae, Leporidae, Felidae, Canidae, and Aves). Different taxonomic families were evaluated to explore the range of isotopic variation within and between these animals. Stable carbon and nitrogen isotopic values of both the wild and domesticated Kuelap faunal samples suggest a diet of both C3 and C4 plant foods. Significant dietary differences were identified between domesticated and wild animals (specifically camelid and cervid), suggesting ecological differences or strategic provisioning from possible domestic C4 crops (maize) by humans. The domesticated camelids displayed a large isotopic variation similar to other highland archaeological studies in Peru, with an average δ13C value of –14.13 ‰ and a standard deviation of 2.96. -
Registros Parasitológicos En Rodent Middens Del Parque Nacional Perito Moreno, Santa Cruz, Argentina
Rev Arg Parasitol Vol. 3 - Nº 1 - Octubre 2014 ISSN: 2313-9862 REGISTROS PARASITOLÓGICOS EN RODENT MIDDENS DEL PARQUE NACIONAL PERITO MORENO, SANTA CRUZ, ARGENTINA Fugassa M H* ARTICULO RESUMEN: Se comunican los primeros hallazgos parasitológicos en rodent middens en un depósito corres- pondiente a Lagidium wolffsohni hallado en Santa Cruz, Argentina. Una muestra de los fragmentos del rodent middens obtenidos del alero de una cueva se procesaron por rehidratación en una solución acuosa de fosfato trisódico y los restos parasitarios se concentraron por flotación y sedimentación espontánea. Se observaron treinta y cinco preparados transitorios bajo el microscopio óptico, registrándose huevos de nematodes perte- necientes a capiláridos (Capillariidae), Trichuris sp. (Trichiuridae), un oxiúrido del género Heteroxynema y un cestode de la subfamilia Anoplocephalinae. Los huevos de capiláridos son similares a los de Calodium hepati- cum. Lagidium wolffsohni es un roedor endémico y raro de modo que resulta importante para su conservación conocer sus parásitos considerando que pueden vulnerar a sus poblaciones. Palabras clave: Parque Nacional Perito Moreno, helmintos gastrointestinales, coproparasitología, Lagidium wolffsohni. ABSTRACT: In this report, the results of the first parasitological examination in rodent middens belonging to Lagidium wolffsohni obtained from a cave in the Santa Cruz Province, Argentina are communicated. A sample of fragments of rodent middens was rehydrated in aqueous trisodium phosphate and parasitic remains concen- trated by flotation and spontaneous sedimentation. Thirty five transitory slides were observed under a light mi- croscope. Nematode eggs of family Capillariidae, Trichuris sp. (Trichiuridae), a member of the family Oxiuridae, Heteroxynema genus, and one of the subfamily Anoplocephalinae cestode were identified. -
Central Peru
Our bird of the trip – the simply stunning Golden-backed Mountain Tanager (Pete Morris) CENTRAL PERU 9 – 25/27 JULY 2013 LEADERS: PETE MORRIS This was the second time that I have had the privilege of leading this wonderful tour to some of the more remote and definitely more scenic parts of Peru’s central Andes. With a somewhat quicker vehicle and some efficient back-up, the tour went surprisingly well. We had very few logistical problems, the journeys went much more quickly in our faster vehicle and the weather was largely good. Best of all though were the birds, and in this department we were truly spoilt, with just about all of the targeted specialities showing very well, and a few surprises too! Pride of place must go to the stunning Golden-backed Mountain Tanager, that was inevitably 1 BirdQuest Tour Report: Central Peru 2013 www.birdquest-tours.com The unique White-cheeked Cotinga showed very well on this year’s tour (Pete Morris) our bird of the tour, but the supporting cast was strong. High up tiny Diademed Plovers, Puna Tinamous and critically endangered White-bellied Cinclodes were particularly popular, whilst the little-known Junin Crake and Junin Grebe both excited us. Bay-vented and White-cheeked Cotingas both obliged, Masked, Band- tailed, Barred and ‘Huánuco’ Fruiteaters added colour, a whole suite of poorly-known tapaculos showed well, Stripe-headed, Bay, Chestnut, Rufous and Undulated Antpittas all gave great views and other rarities includ- ed Andean Snipe, Taczanowski’s Tinamou, stunning Orange-breasted Falcons, Fiery-throated and Coppery Metaltails, Bronze-tailed Comet, Tawny Tit-Spinetail, Ash-breasted and Unstreaked Tit-Tyrants, Rufous-breast- ed and Plain-tailed Warbling Finches, Rufous-backed and Great Inca Finches, Pardusco and the stunning Rufous-browed Hemispingus. -

Species highlighted in RED are the ones illustrated with photos in this report. INTRODUCTION Not everyone is fortunate enough to visit Peru; a marvelous country that boasts a huge country bird list, which is second only to Colombia. Unlike our usual set departure, we started out with a daylong extension to Lomas de Lachay first, before starting out on the usual itinerary for the main tour. On this extra day we managed to 1 www.tropicalbirding.com +1-409-515-0514 [email protected] Page Tropical Birding Trip Report PERU: Manu and Machu Picchu Aug-Sept. 2015 find many extra birds like Peruvian Thick-knee, Least Seedsnipe, Peruvian Sheartail, Raimondi’s Yellow- Finch and the localized Cactus Canastero. The first site of the main tour was Huacarpay Lake, near the beautiful Andean city of Cusco (accessed after a short flight from Lima). This gave us a few endemic species like Bearded Mountaineer and Rusty-fronted Canastero; along with other less local species like Many-colored Rush-tyrant, Plumbeous Rail, Puna Teal, Andean Negrito and Puna Ibis. The following day we birded along the road towards Manu where we picked up birds like Peruvian Sierra-Finch, Chestnut-breasted Mountain-Finch, Spot-winged Pigeon, and a beautiful Peruvian endemic in the form of Creamy-crested Spinetail. We also saw Yungas Pygmy-Owl, Black-faced Ibis, Hooded and Scarlet-bellied Mountain- Tanagers, Red-crested Cotinga and the gorgeous Grass-green Tanager.
