  • Flamingo Newsletter 17, 2009
    ABOUT THE GROUP The Flamingo Specialist Group (FSG) is a global network of flamingo specialists (both scientists and non-scientists) concerned with the study, monitoring, management and conservation of the world’s six flamingo species populations. Its role is to actively promote flamingo research, conservation and education worldwide by encouraging information exchange and cooperation among these specialists, and with other relevant organisations, particularly the IUCN Species Survival Commission (SSC), the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands, the Convention on Conservation of Migratory Species (CMS), the African-Eurasian Migratory Waterbird Agreement (AEWA), and BirdLife International. The group is coordinated from the Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust, Slimbridge, UK, as part of the IUCN-SSC/Wetlands International Waterbird Network. FSG members include experts in both in-situ (wild) and ex-situ (captive) flamingo conservation, as well as in fields ranging from research surveys to breeding biology, infectious diseases, toxicology, movement tracking and data management. There are currently 286 members representing 206 organisations around the world, from India to Chile, and from France to South Africa.

However, the knowledge of culturable bacterial communities found in this extreme ecotope’s soil is yet insufficient. Therefore, our research has been aimed to fulfil this lack of knowledge and improve the understanding of functioning of edaphic bacterial communities of the Central Mojave Desert soil. We characterized aerobic heterotrophic soil bacterial communities of the central region of the Mojave Desert. A high total number of prokaryotic cells and a high proportion of culturable forms in the soil studied were observed. Prevalence of Actinobacteria, Proteobacteria, and Firmicutes was discovered. The dominance of pigmented strains in culturable communities and high proportion of thermotolerant and pH-tolerant bacteria were detected. Resistance to a number of salts, including the ones found in Martian regolith, as well as antibiotic resistance, were also estimated.

  • Wilson's Phalarope in the Central Andes and Its Interaction with the Chilean Flamingo*
    Revista Chilena de Historia Natural 57:47-57, 1984 Wilson's Phalarope in the Central Andes and its Interaction with the Chilean Flamingo* Pollito de mar tricolor en los Andes Centrales y su interacci6n con el flamenco chilena STUART H. HURLBERT¹,MATILDE LOPEZ 2 and JAMES 0. KEITH 3 1 Departament of Biology, San Diego State University, San Diego, California 92182, USA. 2 Departamento de Ciencias Naturales, Universidad de Antofagasta, Antofagasta, Chile. 3 1771 South Welch Circle, Lakewood, Colorado 80228, USA. ABSTRACT More than 500,000 Wilson's phalaropes (Phalaropus tricolor) have been observed during the austral summer on shallow, saline lakes of the Bolivian puna. This region, with adjacent parts of Chile and Argentina, thus appears to be the major wintering grounds of the species. The lakes on which it is found in greatest numbers are simultaneously inhabited by large numbers of the Chilean flamingo (Phoeni- copterus chilensis) and populations of a few invertebrates on which both birds feed: brine shrimp (Artemia salina), copepods (Boecke/la poopoensis), chironomid midges (Paratrichocladius sp.), and brine flies (Ephydridae). As P. cbilensis feed, P. tricolor individuals sometimes swim rapidly around them and feed on invertebrates that these larger companions stir up from the lake bottom. P. tricolor ignores the other two flamingo species (Phoenicoparrus andinus, P. jamesi) present on the lakes; these feed on diatoms and move about less rapidly than doesP. cbilensis. Keywords: altiplano, saline lakes, zooplankton, Bolivia, Chile. RESUMEN Más de 500.000 Pollitos de mar tricolor (Phalaropus tricolor) han sido observados durante el verano austral en las someras lagunas salinas de la puna boliviana.

CONICET Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas) Nathalie A. Cabrol, Edmond Grin (NASA Ames/SETI CSC) Edwin Minkley, Jr., Youngeob Yu (Carnegie Mellon University) ABSTRACT The High-Lakes Project is funded by the NAI and explores the highest perennial volcanic lakes on Earth in the Bolivian and Chilean Andes, including several lakes ~6,000 m elevation. These lakes represent an opportunity to study the evolution of microbial organisms in relatively shallow waters not providing substantial protection against UV radiation. Aguas Calientes (5,870 m) was investigated (November 2006) and samples of water and sediment collected at 1, 3, 5, and 10 cm depth. An Eldonet UV dosimeter positioned on the shore records UV radiation and temperature, and is logging data year round. A UV SolarLight sensor allowed acquisition of point measurements in all channels at the time of the sampling. UVA, UVB, and PAR peaks between 11:00 am and 1:00 pm reached 7.7 mW/cm2, 48.5 µW/cm2, and 511 W/m2, respectively.

The aim of this paper is to continue the diatom flora survey in high mountain water bodies. There have been obtained, in January 2005, water samples from 12 wetlands (4500 m asl) in the Vilama lacustrine system, Jujuy province. With this contribution, the knowledge of the diatom flora in this type of environments is increased. There have been identified 43 genera and 137 infrageneric taxa of wich six are mentioned by the first time for the country and one new species, Staurophora vilamae was described. The relation between species richness and some environmental parameters is also discussed. Key words: diatoms, wetlands, Vilama, Jujuy, Argentina.

  • Conservation Status of the Buff-Breasted Sandpiper: Historic and Contemporary Distribution and Abundance in South America
    Wilson Bull., 114(1), 2002, pp. 44±72 CONSERVATION STATUS OF THE BUFF-BREASTED SANDPIPER: HISTORIC AND CONTEMPORARY DISTRIBUTION AND ABUNDANCE IN SOUTH AMERICA RICHARD B. LANCTOT,1,10,12 DANIEL E. BLANCO,2 RAFAEL A. DIAS,3 JUAN P. ISACCH,4 VERENA A. GILL,1 JULIANA B. ALMEIDA,5 KASPAR DELHEY,6,11 PABLO F. PETRACCI,7 GLAYSON A. BENCKE,8 AND RODRIGO A. BALBUENO9 ABSTRACT.ÐWe present historic and contemporary information on the distribution and abundance of Buff- breasted Sandpipers (Tryngites subru®collis) in South America. Historic information was collated from the literature, area ornithologists, and museums, whereas contemporary data were derived from surveys conducted throughout the main wintering range in Argentina, Uruguay, and Brazil during the austral summers of 1999 and 2001. Variable circular plot sampling was used to estimate population densities. During 1999, the highest concentration of Buff- breasted Sandpipers in Argentina was in southern BahõÂa SamboromboÂn (General Lavalle District) and areas north of Mar Chiquita coastal lagoon. During 2001, the highest concentrations in Brazil were at Ilha da Torotama and Lagoa do Peixe National Park. During 1999 and 2001, the highest concentrations of Buff-breasted Sandpipers in Uruguay were found along three lagoons (Laguna de Rocha, Laguna de Castillos, and Laguna GarzoÂn) bordering the Atlantic Ocean. Population densities (birds/ha) of Buff-breasted Sandpipers were 0.11 (95% C.I. 5 0.04±0.31) in Argentina, 1.62 (0.67±3.93) in Brazil, and 1.08 (0.37±3.18) in Uruguay. High turnover rates at survey sites, due to the formation of large, mobile ¯ocks, contributed to moderately large con®dence intervals around our population density estimates.
