>> BIRDING SITES NEW BIRDING LoDGES IN ARGENTINA New birding ‘lodges’ in Argentina James Lowen Birders visiting Argentina tend to stay in hotels near but not at birding sites because the country lacks lodges of the type found elsewhere in the Neotropics. However, a few new establishments are bucking the trend and may deserve to be added to country’s traditional birding route. This article focuses on two of them and highlights a further six.

Data basis. Sexual size dimorphism (SSD) was measured by the residuals of the regression of male body mass against female body mass. Breeding group sizes (BGS) were divided into three categories: group of one or two animals (A), group of three, four and five animals (B), and groups larger than five animals (C). The different mating tactics (MT) were harem (H), territorial (T) and tending (F). Non-available mating tactics (NA) and monogamous species (M) are indicated.

Sills Hall 210 – 725‐3312 – email: [email protected] Office hours: Monday 2:45‐4, or by appointment. This course introduces students to film produced in Spain, from the silent era to the present, focusing on the ways in which cinema can be a vehicle for promoting social and cultural values, as well as for exposing social, religious, sexual, or historical taboos in the form of counterculture, protest, or as a means for society to process change or cope with issues from the past. Looks at the role of film genre, authorship, and narrative in creating languages for perpetuating or contesting tradition, and how these apply to the specific Spanish context.

Pudu in a Chilean National Park
547 Pudu in a Chilean National Park Gary 8. Wetterberg The Chilean pudu Pudu pudu, the smallest American deer, is on the world list of endangered species in the IUCN Red Data Book. One of its few remaining refuges is in the Vicente Perez Rosales National Park. This is in the Lake District of southern Chile, the 'Switzerland of South America', between the Puyehue National Park to the north, and the Nahuel Huapi National Park in Argentina on the east. There are very few records on the fauna of this park, which covers 243,000 hectares, and is part of the Patagonian Subdivision of the Neotropical Faunal Region. Like an Island In many ways, Chile is like an island, cut off by the Atacama Desert on the north, the Andes to the east, the Patagonian ice fields and fiords to the south, and the Pacific on the west. This geo- graphical isolation has permitted the development of a unique biota, and Chilean wildlife exhibits some of the characteristics of island fauna such as narrow endemics and few competitors. The pudu is descended from the deer that migrated from North America in the late Tertiary period (Simpson 1950). The species is primarily of Chilean origin and distribution, although it is frequently encountered in adjacent areas of Argentina, and is present in Bolivia (Walker, 1964). It was discovered and named in 1782 by the Jesuit Juan Ignacio Molina, the 'father of Chilean natural history' (Osgood, 1943). Other species of the genus are found in Ecuador and Peru (Grimwood, 1968), and Brazil (Hershkovitz, 1958). -

1 ENSO-Triggered Floods in South America
Hydrol. Earth Syst. Sci. Discuss., https://doi.org/10.5194/hess-2018-107 Manuscript under review for journal Hydrol. Earth Syst. Sci. Discussion started: 3 April 2018 c Author(s) 2018. CC BY 4.0 License. 1 ENSO-triggered floods in South America: 2 correlation between maximum monthly discharges during strong events 3 Federico Ignacio Isla 4 Instituto de Geología de Costas y del Cuaternario (UNMDP-CIC) 5 Instituto de Investigaciones Marinas y Costeras (UNMDP-CONICET) 6 Funes 3350, Mar del Plata 7600, Argentina, +54.223.4754060, [email protected] 7 8 Abstract 9 ENSO-triggered floods altered completely the annual discharge of many watersheds of South America. Anomalous 10 years as 1941, 1982-83, 1997-98 and 2015-16 signified enormous fluvial discharges draining towards the Pacific 11 Ocean, but also to the Atlantic. These floods affected large cities built on medium-latitudinal Andes (Lima, Quito, 12 Salta), but also those located at floodplains, as Porto Alegre, Blumenau, Curitiba, Asunción, Santa Fe and Buenos 13 Aires. Maximum discharge months are particular and easily distinguished along time series from watersheds located 14 at the South American Arid Diagonal. At watersheds conditioned by precipitations delivered from the Atlantic or 15 Pacific anti-cyclonic centers, the ENSO-triggered floods are more difficult to discern. The floods of 1941 affected 16 70,000 inhabitants in Porto Alegre. In 1983, Blumenau city was flooded during several days; and the Paraná River 17 multiplied 15 times the width of its middle floodplain. That year, the Colorado River in Northern Patagonia 18 connected for the last time to the Desagûadero – Chadileuvú - Curacó system and its delta received saline water for 19 the last time. -
Popular, Elite and Mass Culture? the Spanish Zarzuela in Buenos Aires, 1890-1900
Popular, Elite and Mass Culture? The Spanish Zarzuela in Buenos Aires, 1890-1900 Kristen McCleary University of California, Los Angeles ecent works by historians of Latin American popular culture have focused on attempts by the elite classes to control, educate, or sophisticate the popular classes by defining their leisure time activities. Many of these studies take an "event-driven" approach to studying culture and tend to focus on public celebrations and rituals, such as festivals and parades, sporting events, and even funerals. A second trend has been for scholars to mine the rich cache of urban regulations during both the colonial and national eras in an attempt to mea- sure elite attitudes towards popular class activities. For example, Juan Pedro Viqueira Alban in Propriety and Permissiveness in Bourbon Mexico eloquently shows how the rules enacted from above tell more about the attitudes and beliefs of the elites than they do about those they would attempt to regulate. A third approach has been to examine the construction of national identity. Here scholarship explores the evolution of cultural practices, like the tango and samba, that developed in the popular sectors of society and eventually became co-opted and "sanitized" by the elites, who then claimed these activities as symbols of national identity.' The defining characteristic of recent popular culture studies is that they focus on popular culture as arising in opposition to elite culture and do not consider areas where elite and popular culture overlap. This approach is clearly relevant to his- torical studies that focus on those Latin American countries where a small group of elites rule over large predominantly rural and indigenous populations. -
