  • Stresemann's Bristlefront Reserve 1, Brazil
    Protecting the Atlantic Rainforest of Brazil: Stresemann's Bristlefront Reserve Supported by Tropical Forest Forever Fund The Brazilian Atlantic Forest once covered eastern Brazil from the state of Rio Grande do Norte, south to Porto Alegre, and reaching inland as far as Paraguay. It is now one of the most endangered ecosystems on Earth, having been reduced to less than 8% of its former extent, and in some places having disappeared completely. One of its inhabitants, the Stresemann's Bristlefront is a Critically Endangered species of tapaculo, found only here in the Atlantic Coastal Forest of eastern Brazil. Brazilian NGO Fundacao Biodiversitas and American Bird Conservancy mobilized in 2007 to purchase 1,468 acres to establish the Stresemann’s Bristlefront Reserve. However, the forest surrounding the reserve continues to be under extreme pressure from logging and conversion to pasture. In September 2012 GCBO proudly awarded a Tropical Forest Forever Fund grant of $20,000 to ABC and their partners to purchase an aA rareof female photo additional 120 acre, high- quality forest tract to help secure the future for this elusive species. In addition to the Bristlefront, 16 other threatened bird species and eight near © Albano Ciro threatened species have been documented at Bandeira, including one of the only surviving populations of the stunningly beautiful and Endangered Banded Cotinga (Cotinga maculata). It also contains a population of the Critically Endangered Yellow-breasted Capuchin monkey. Overwintering Nearctic-neotropical migrants include Barn Swallow and Red-eyed Vireo.

  • Discovery Coast Atlantic Forest Reserves Brazil
    DISCOVERY COAST ATLANTIC FOREST RESERVES BRAZIL The rainforests of Brazil’s Atlantic coast are the most biodiverse in the world. The Discovery Coast Reserves in the states of Bahia and Espírito Santo comprise eight protected areas covering 112,000 hectares of the forest and its associated coastal scrub with a very distinct range of species of high endemism and an evolutionary pattern of great scientific interest. Only a few scattered remnants of this once vast forest remain in an archipelago of sites, an irreplaceable part of the world’s heritage it is essential to conserve. COUNTRY Brazil NAME Discovery Coast Atlantic Forest Reserves NATURAL WORLD HERITAGE SERIAL SITE 1999: Inscribed on the World Heritage List under Natural Criteria ix and x STATEMENT OF OUTSTANDING UNIVERSAL VALUE.[pending] The UNESCO World Heritage Committee issued the following statement at the time of inscription: Justification for Inscription Criterion (ix): The Brazilian Discovery Coast includes a number of areas containing the best and largest remaining examples of Atlantic forest in the northeast region of Brazil and contains high numbers of rare and endemic species. Criterion (x): The site displays the biological richness and evolutionary history of the few remaining areas of Atlantic forest of northeast Brazil. The site reveals a pattern of evolution of great interest to science and importance for conservation. The fact that only these few scattered remnants of a once vast forest remain, make them an irreplaceable part of the world’s forest heritage. INTERNATIONAL DESIGNATION 1993: Mata Atlántica Biosphere Reserve designated under the UNESCO Man & Biosphere Programme; 1999: Extended (29,473,484 ha).

    Journal of Threatened Taxa | www.threatenedtaxa.org | 26 July 2015 | 7(9): 7510–7537 Review The local conservation status of the regionally rarest bird species in the state of Rio de Janeiro, southeastern Brazil ISSN 0974-7907 (Online) Francisco Mallet-Rodrigues 1 & José Fernando Pacheco 2 ISSN 0974-7893 (Print) 1 Laboratório de Ornitologia, Departamento de Zoologia, Instituto de Biologia, UFRJ, 21944-970, OPEN ACCESS Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brasil 2 Comitê Brasileiro de Registros Ornitológicos (CBRO), Rua Bambina, 50/104, 22251-050, Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brasil 1 [email protected] (corresponding author), 2 [email protected] Abstract: We reviewed the local current status and summarized the suspected causes of rarity, and presumed major threats to the 84 rarest bird species in the state of Rio de Janeiro, southeastern Brazil. We have focused on the bird species that have not been recently recorded or have fewer than 10 records in the last five decades in the state of Rio de Janeiro.Of these, 24 species are considered globally threatened or near threatened, and at least about 30 species are actually common or abundant elsewhere in their distribution.More than half of these species are forest birds inhabiting mainly lowland forests, but less than one-fifth of these species are endemic to the Atlantic Forest. The trophic guilds with the highest numbers of species were omnivores and insectivores. The main habitats used by the rarest bird species were wetlands, lowland forest canopy, secondary forest canopy and secondary forest edge. Bird species using two or more habitats were more represented among rare species than those using only a single habitat.
