Cotinga 39

New locality for White-masked castaneus and other avian range extensions for dpto. Loreto, Fabrice Schmitt, Raphaël Sané, Marc Thibault and Gabriel Vásquez Received 3 May 2015; final revision accepted 1 October 2016 39 (2017): OL 1–9 published online 2 March 2017

Presentamos los resultados de una expedición realizada en junio del 2013 cerca del distrito de San Lorenzo, depto. Loreto, Perú. El descubrimiento más notable es una nueva localidad para Pithys castaneus y una población de Epinecrophylla sp., la cual presenta características fenotípicas intermedias entre E. fjeldsaai y E. haematonota. Pensamos que esa población de Epinecrophylla apoya la idea que E. fjeldsaai debería considerarse como una subespecie de E. haematonota. También documentamos extensiones de rango de distribución para otras cuatro especies: Cypseloides cryptus, Polytmus theresiae, Conopias trivirgatus y Tachyphonus rufus. Nuestra lista total de 252 especies incluye varias especies de ocurrencia poco común o raras, tales como Anurolimnas fasciatus, Bucco capensis, B. tamatia, Neoctantes niger, Neopipo cinnamomea y nigricollis. Con estos resultados esperamos promover en las autoridades locales y regionales acciones de conservación en esta área amenazada por deforestación.

P. theresiae is very patchily distributed in northern Peru. Our record fills a distributional gap between its two previously known locations in Peru, 50 km south-east (Jeberos) and 150 km north (along the río Pastaza) of our study site10.

Antwren sp. Epinecrophylla sp. We observed Epinecrophylla antwrens daily in terra firme forest near Puente Machete, and two males Figure 2. White-chinned Swift Cypseloides cryptus, and three females were collected (Figs. 4–5; MUSA San Lorenzo, Loreto, Peru, June 2013 (Fabrice Schmitt) 4953–4957). Unfortunately, we obtained no sound- recordings, although we briefly heard songs similar overlooked, species in Peru, usually found on to those given by Stipple-throated Antwren E. the east slope of Andes and over a wide variety haematonota.

As with most swifts, they may are similar, but we eliminated White-eyed commute long distances from their breeding / Antwren E. leucophthalma by the presence of dark roosting sites to feed, and the birds conceivably streaks on the females’ throats. The other species came from the relatively close Kampankis range most closely resembling the San Lorenzo birds is (c.100 km west of our sighting), although the E. haematonota, which is widespread to the south species was not found there during a recent field and east in Amazonian Peru, and Brown-backed expedition7.

The back colour of the San and a few Melastomataceae growing as scattered Lorenzo birds varied from all brown (one female) bushes with some re-growth. We discovered to brown on the upper back with some rufous a loose lek of at least ten singing individuals on the lower back (two males and two females), (XC187549, XC187553) within c.4 ha. Singing intermediate between E. haematonota (rufous back males usually perched 2–4 m above ground in in both sexes) and E. fjeldsaai (brown back in both sexes). Our observations of phenotypically intermediate birds suggest historic or ongoing gene flow and lack of reproductive isolation between the two taxa, supporting the idea that E. fjeldsaai is a subspecies of E. haematonota11.

White-masked Antbird Pithys castaneus We encountered this rare and poorly known species daily along a 470m-long forest transect near Puente Machete; seven were trapped (Fig. 6) of which two were collected (MUSA 4936–4937). Our records are the first east of the río Morona since the type specimen was collected (its precise provenance is debated, but it was reportedly taken at ‘Andoas’, somewhere along the río Pastaza). Other localities are Tierra Blanca, near Puerto Alegria on the west bank of the río Morona5, the Kampankis range between the río Santiago and the río Morona5,7, and Chicais in dpto. Amazonas6. San Lorenzo is 95 km south-east of Tierra Blanca, the nearest known location. All of these localities are Figure 3. Green-tailed Goldenthroat Polytmus theresiae, San north of the río Marañón. Although we caught P. Lorenzo, Loreto, Peru, June 2013 (Christophe Gouraud) castaneus daily in mist-nets, we seldom observed

Most observations pertained to birds responding to pre-recorded playback, with some individuals coming to the sound over a distance of probably >100 m. On approaching, a bird would first deliver the usual song (long whistle), then circle us, sometimes perching up to 3 m above ground. All birds that did this were very shy and never stayed more than 1–2 minutes. Occasionally, we heard spontaneous song during the first hour of daylight. All of our sightings were in irapayal forest. Typically, after playback of P. castaneus song within a large stand of these palms, a bird would respond within c.5 minutes.
