Within the Neotropics, where thriving domestic and international markets for wild birds persist, many restricted-range species are potentially at risk. However, the impacts of the trade on bird species are poorly known EHFDXVHĆHOGPRQLWRULQJRIZLOGSRSXODWLRQVLVH[SHQVLYH localized, and requires specialized expertise. Moreover, the PXOWLWXGHRIVSHFLHVWKDWDUHWUDGHGPDNHVLWGLIĆFXOWWR determine which species are in greatest need of monitoring. Here we present a new approach to assessing the impacts of the trade on wild bird populations, based on our research in Indonesia, which has a massive bird trade. We show that market data (price and volume trends for traded species) can {փdփTT ID t ABSTRACT t ID t be used to identify those bird species whose populations are likely declining due to the trade.

Recent studies use DNA sequences to evaluate the status of subspecies within species complexes, and to recognize and delimit species. The monotypic hummingbird genus Eugenes, distributed along the highlands from southwest USA to Central America, represents an interesting example of how the original subspecies descriptions could be underestimating the species taxonomy of a complex. We assessed the phylogenetic relationships, the taxonomic status and the species limits of the proposed subspecies of the taxon Eugenes fulgens (subspecies: fulgens, viridiceps and spectabilis). We performed a phylogenetic analysis using nuclear and mitochondrial markers (mtDNA: ND2, ND4, Control Region; nDNA: BFib, ODC, MUSK), and !+'¢S8!¡8'9'2;!ࣅ329 ABSTRACT t Table of Contents contrasted these data with the geographical distribution and the original morphological descriptions for the subspecies. Also, we assessed the species limits between the different groups using a coalescent approach implemented in the Bayesian Phylogenetics and Phylogeography software (BPP). We found genetic differences between the three groups, suggesting the existence of two cryptic species (E. fulgens and E. viridiceps) and one phenotypically differentiated species (E. spectabilis). Our analyses show that the E. viridiceps and E. fulgens groups are the most closely related of the three. 11 Establishing migratory connections using stable isotope atlassing Keith A.

ORAL PRESENTATION SESSION 7: MIGRATION AND SEASONAL VARIATION There is an urgent need to establish migratory connections between breeding, stopover and wintering grounds of migrant birds using the Neotropics. Despite recent advances in the use of transmitters and light-sensitive geolocators, this conservation need is severely hampered by logistical DQGĆQDQFLDOFRQVLGHUDWLRQV7KHGHYHORSPHQWRIPXOWL isotope feather ‘isoscapes’ for the Americas provides a new opportunity to provide coarse-scale assignment of birds to moult origins. In particular, the use of both stable-hydrogen and stable carbon isotope surfaces to delineate origins is showing considerable potential, especially for South America. 7KHPRVWFXUUHQWGHYHORSPHQWVLQWKLVĆHOGZLOOEHGHVFULEHG {փdփTT ID t ABSTRACT t ID t and migratory connections depicted for several Neotropical migrants wintering in Central America, the Caribbean and South America. Special focus will be placed on Barn Swallow (Hirundo rustica) for which results of stable isotope and light sensitive geolocator returns will be shown. Precipitationbased isoscapes for South America are less structured than North America and underline the more favorable use of species that grow feathers in North America before migration. However, we generally found good concordance between geolocator and isotope assignments for Barn Swallow that molts on the wintering ground. Preliminary analysis suggest that sulfur isotopes can be used to determine coastal regions. It is proposed that a coordinated isotopic atlassing project be established for the Palearctic-Neotropical migratory system. 12 Thomas A. W. Enright1*, T. Wayne Schwertner1, Heather A.

Since its designation as a game species in 1984, there has been little effort directed toward monitoring or PDQDJLQJWKHVSHFLHV5HVHDUFKGHĆQLQJ:7'2RFFXSDQF\DQG distribution, critical to effective monitoring program design, has not been undertaken. The objectives of this study were to model WTDO detection probability and multi-scale habitat- !+'S8!¡8'9'2;!ࣅ329 Table of Contents occupancy, and predict species distribution. A time-of-detection protocol, incorporating playback methods, was used to quantify detection probability and occupancy of WTDO at 490 survey locations. Detection probability and habitat-occupancy models, integrating patch and landscape metrics, were developed through UNMARKED. The best generalized multi-mixture model resulted in an estimated detection probability of 0.82 that declined with ambient noise (8804; P=0.0001).

Through model averaging, riparian forest and citrus had the greatest occupancy probability, >0.80, while urban and wetland had the lowest, <0.40. Occupancy declined with distance to the nearest suitable patch, increased with the proportion of riparian forest and had a quadratic relationship with patch area, indicative that species occupancy was contingent upon the proximity of riparian habitat and citrus while negatively impacted by fragmentation. The model and distribution provide a foundation for species abundance assessment, guidance for future land management, and the development of a targeted monitoring program for WTDO.

ORAL PRESENTATION SESSION 10: LANDSCAPE ECOLOGY Due to the current complexity of landscapes, considering their anthropogenic components in ecological studies can {փdփTT ID t ABSTRACT t provide a more solid groundwork to better understand their patterns and processes. We assessed bird species richness DQGFRPSRVLWLRQDWĆYHGLIIHUHQWHQYLURQPHQWDOFRQGLWLRQV (well-preserved cloud forest, peri-urban forest, urban forest, shade coffee plantation, cattle ranch) embedded in a landscape whose original vegetation was tropical montane cloud forest. We used 10 point-counts of 25 m radius at each location to census bird communities. Birds respond differently to the VWXGLHGHQYLURQPHQWDOFRQGLWLRQV:HUHFRUGHGVLJQLĆFDQW differences in species richness during the breeding season, but no differences during the wintering season. This results support the idea that during the wintering season, when habitat requirements for birds are less strict, species distribute homogeneously across the landscape, while species tend to be more selective and concentrate in original forests during the breeding season. Our community composition results show that vegetation structural traits play a more important role in determining bird communities than spatial aggregation does. Considering the limitations of our study, our results provide information suggesting that in order to make effective avian conservation in the region, it is crucial to adopt a dynamic scheme, taking into account temporal changes in both human-managed and non-managed systems. !+'£S8!¡8'9'2;!ࣅ329 ID t ABSTRACT t 14 Spatial and seasonal variation of avian malaria infections in sites with different land uses within a neotropical montane forest matrix Table of Contents Carolina Hernández-Lara1*, Diego SantiagoAlarcon1, Fernando González-García1 ǢW29ধ;<;3&'$3£3+Ð!TWW r$!83£-2!,£ӑǦ|+1!-£W$31 ORAL PRESENTATION SESSION 18: AVIAN DISEASES Habitat destruction and seasonality can alter host-parasite interactions. The montane cloud forest of Veracruz State in Mexico has been transformed into agroecosystems and cities. Our aim was to determine how ecological parameters of avian malaria parasites responded to four different land use types (i.e., preserved cloud forest, periurban forest, urban forest, and coffee plantation) and to seasonality. We used microscopy and PCR to determine prevalence, parasitaemia, and aggregation of haemosporidians infecting the widespread chestnut-capped EUXVKĆQFK$UUHPRQEUXQQHLQXFKD:HSHUIRUPHG3&$ and cluster analyses to determine vegetation structure and similarity, and to investigate how vegetation variables are associated with parasitological parameters. Prevalence and parasitaemia of avian malaria were higher during the rainy season, while aggregation presented the opposite pattern. There was higher prevalence during the rainy season at sites with the least disturbance and land management (preserved cloud forest and periurban forest), while sites with urban effects and frequent land management (urban forest and coffee plantation) maintained similar prevalence values throughout the year. Infection by avian malaria was negatively associated with bush cover during the dry season. There was a higher {փdփTT ID t ABSTRACT t ID t likelihood of acquiring an infection and developing higher parasite loads during the rainy season in birds inhabiting the periurban and urban forests. Our results suggest that an increase in land use management reduces seasonal ćXFWXDWLRQVLQSDUDVLWHWUDQVPLVVLRQDQGWKDWLQIHFWLRQVFDQ be more severe for birds inhabiting urban environments. 21 Daniela Gomez1*, Luis Rivera1, Roman Ruggera1, Natalia Politi1 ǢW'2;83&'2='9ধ+!$-32'9@8!29('8'2$-!&' </<@TT<T</<@T8+'2ধ2!

Expansion of oil palm plantations elsewhere in the humid tropics has precipitated massive loss of forest habitats and their associated speciose biotas and their expansion into north-east Brazil represents an emergent threat to Amazonian biodiversity. Understanding the direct and indirect impacts and concurrent conservation trade-offs of the expanding Amazonian oil palm plantation acreage, alongside other {փdփTT ID t ABSTRACT t dominant regional land-uses is thus critical for systematic conservation planning. We carried out bird surveys in oil palm plantations of varying ages and in both primary and secondary forests and cattle pastures in the Brazilian state of Pará. We found that oil palm plantations retained impoverished avian communities with a similar species composition to pastures and other non-forest land-uses and did not offer habitat for most forest-associated species, including those of national and international conservation concern. On the other hand, the forest remnants which the oil palm companies are legally obliged to protect, hosted a relatively species-rich community including several globally-threatened bird species, although these forest remnants already represent a shifted baseline. We consider oil palm to be no less detrimental to regional biodiversity than other agricultural land-uses and that political pressure exerted by large landowners to permit its legal substitution for native forest in private landholdings would have dire consequences for regional biodiversity. 31 Relationship between beak morphology and diet of three sympatric species of genus Sporophila “seedeaters” in coastal agroecosystems of Central Peru O.F.

It was also evident that the best predictors of foraging strategies and microhabitat use in this assemblage were bill size and shape, wing length, and tarsus length. Further studies should test ecomorphological relations in other Neotropical taxa, in order to identify subsets of phenotypic traits that could be used as a reliable proxy of ecological relationships of syntopic birds. 51 Ana Luiza Camargo Catalano !2!£<-A!$!;!£!23ǧ|+1!-£W$31 We examined in this study vocalizations of individuals of Thamnophilus doliatus from different locations across Latin America. Songs from 157 individuals were analyzed using the following variables: number of notes, patch duration, repetition rate, peak frequency, duration of the terminal note, and peak frequency of the terminal note. Since the occurrence of T. doliatus is widespread in Latin America, we expected that these variables would have a great variation among individuals. The songs were divided into sections to measure variation of repetition rate and frequency.

We used point counts in a large block of continuous forest, the Iguassu National Park (INP), and in a fragmented forest landscape in the north of Paraná. We evaluated if species of G1 presented higher occupancy when compared to G2 in a 5 km transect of continuous forest in the INP. Moreover, we investigated variation in species richness of these two bird groups in 10 forest fragments across a forest cover gradient, which was measured using the following: fragment size, connectivity, vegetation quality and forest cover. A total of 29 species of G1 and 34 species of G2 were recorded in the continuous forest. G1 (12 species) presented a higher rate of full occupancy than G2 (6 species; Contingency Table, p = 0.037). G2 species did not respond to any of the measured variables, while G1 species richness increased with forest connectivity. We argue that the G1 is a useful biological indicator because species in this group: (1) tend to have high occupancy in continuous forest (2) tend to be more sensitive to functional connectivity among forest fragments, one of best predictors in fragmented landscapes. !+'S8!¡8'9'2;!ࣅ329 ID t ABSTRACT t 59 Effects of avian malaria on male behavior and female visitation in lekking Blue-crowned Manakins Table of Contents Mariane Bosholn1*, Alan Fecchio2, Patricia Silveira3, Érika (EMB) Braga3, Marina Anciães1 ǢW29ধ;<;3!$-32!£&''97<-9!9&!1!AÖ2-!TǣW$!&'1@3(!;<8!£ $-'2$'93(8'?'£2-='89-;@TǤW2-='89-&!&' '&'8!£&'-2!9'8!-9 r#39,3£2W1|+1!-£W$31 ORAL PRESENTATION SESSION 18: AVIAN DISEASES Infection by blood parasites of the genus Plasmodium can affect survival and reproduction in the host, and may affect the expression of sexual selection traits. Although different studies highlight the association of parasitism with a decrease in reproductive success of hosts, it is still uncertain which ĆWQHVVFRPSRQHQWVDUHDIIHFWHGE\WKHSDUDVLWHV+HQFH few studies have addressed the role of parasites in honest signalling among lekking species. Here, we investigated if infection by Plasmodium spp. compromises rates of vocalization, dance and social interaction of male Blue-crowned Manakins (Lepidothrix coronata), and if it affects female preferences in a Central Amazon population. Behavioral observations coupled with molecular diagnosis to detect haemosporidian parasites revealed that infection by Plasmodium affected male activities, as well as female choice. Furthemore, despite similar visiting frequencies to both infected and uninfected males, they were more frequent to males that vocalized and danced more, which were more frequently not infected. Therefore, we suggest a role of male vocalization and dance rates as honest signals for females, indicating male immunity in the studied population. Thus, male exhibitions would function as an important signal for sexual selection, used by females as cues about the probability {փdփTT ID t ABSTRACT t ID t of a male being infected. Future studies testing the inheritance of female preferences and male behaviour rates will add to the understanding of the role of such behaviors in the evolution of mechanisms of female preferences with honest signals. 60 José Tomás Ibarra1*, Kathy Martin2 ǢW2-='89-;@3(8-ধ9,3£<1#-!{32ধ)$-!2-='89-&!&!;Õ£-$!&' ,-£'TǣW2-='89-;@3(8-ধ9,3£<1#-!{2=-8321'2;!2!&! ORAL PRESENTATION SESSION 19: FUNCTIONAL DIVERSITY Conservation practices commonly focus on measures of species diversity that merely include information on species richness (i.e., taxonomic diversity). However, functional diversity (range, distribution and density of trait values of species in a community) should be more informative than taxonomic diversity as it measures those aspects of diversity that affect ecosystem function. Previous work in the northern hemisphere has shown that owls may act as surrogates for taxonomic diversity but little is known on their value as surrogates of functional diversity. We assessed the surrogacy reliability of two sympatric owls, 6WUL[UXĆSHV(habitat-specialist) and Glaucidium nana (habitat-generalist), in Andean temperate forests of southern Chile. During 2011-2013, we conducted 1,145 owl surveys, 505 avian point-transects and 505 vegetation surveys across 101 sites comprising a range of conditions from degraded habitat to structurally complex oldgrowth forest stands.

For example, the more frequent appearance of migratory behaviour in species breeding in the temperate zone than in species originally breeding in the tropics is believed to have resulted partly from tropical climatic stability and niche conservatism constraining tropical species from shifting their ranges. However, little is known about the patterns and processes underlying climatic niche evolution in migratory and resident animals. We evaluated the evolution of overlap in climatic niches between seasons and its relation to migratory behaviour in the Parulidae. We used ordination methods to measure seasonal niche overlap of 55 resident and 48 migratory species and phylogenetic comparative methods to assess patterns and modes of climatic niche evolution. We found that despite travelling up to thousands of kilometers, migrants track climatic conditions across the year to a greater extent than tropical residents, which results in different modes of niche evolution in migrants and residents. This pattern contradicts the hypothesis of greater niche conservatism constraining tropical species from range-shifting and suggests that other factors are likely involved in shaping the evolution of migration in tropical and temperate lineages. The long-held notion that tropical species are more sensititive to climatic change than their temperate-zone counterparts due to more constrained niches may not apply to cases in which temperate-breeding species escape climatic extremes via migratory behaviour. !+'¢S8!¡8'9'2;!ࣅ329 ID t ABSTRACT t 71 Biologia reprodutiva de Rhopias gularis (Passeriformes:Thamnophilidae) no Sudeste do Brasil Table of Contents Daniel F.

Os melhores modelos (dAIC<2; weight=0,6704) mostram que dicromatismo (p<0,001) inibe a presença dessas espécies, porque elas são mais conspícuas aos predadores, especialmente em áreas com pouca cobertura vegetal.

In urban areas low-frequency anthropogenic noise is likely to mask sound transmission. Birds respond in three different ways to environmental noise: by increasing the song amplitude (the Lombard effect), by raising the frequency of the sound above that of background noise, and by reducing interference by singing during the quiet periods of day.

We recorded 5 min of VSRQWDQHRXVVRQJIURPLQGLYLGXDOPDOHVDQGTXDQWLĆHG environmental noise and abundance in the city of Valdivia, Chile. We also captured, marked, and released 10 individuals, each of which were recorded six different times following the same protocol. We analyzed these songs using Multiple Lineal Regression and Quantile Regression. Results suggest that environmental noise affects both maximum frequency and song modulation, and a homogenization of song cues in high abundances. Finally we found high variation among individuals in repertoire size and songs cues. These results suggest a high capacity by male Z. capensis to respond to variation to environmental factors through both plasticity and interindividual variation in response to environmental challenges. 104 Assessing Atlantic Forest patches in fragmented agricultural landscapes through a local birdbased index of biotic integrity Eduardo R.

So, we developed and tested a bird-based Index of Biotic Integrity (IBI) to assess forest habitat quality of 8 patches (3-115ha) located on HML in Southeast Brazil and compared it against classical approach (general species richness and abundance, Shannon´s Diversity Index). After 1-year VDPSOLQJVSHFLHVZHUHLGHQWLĆHGIURPZKLFKFRPSRVHG candidate metrics. The IBI approach uses existing relationships between candidate metrics and habitat quality rank (HQR) to determine the best indicators and then assign an index for each studies site. Our HQR integrated history of forest degradation and landscape features. Seven metrics clearly associated with HQR were included in our IBI (richness of: threatened species and forest-non-forest species; abundance of: endemic species, small understory-midstory insectivorous, forest species, non-forest species and midstory foragers). They described the general conditions of the forest patch, the lower strata quality and patch suitability for ecosystems services. The IBI ranged of 1.28 in the worst forest sites up to 7.39 in the best, and showed high linear relationship with HQR while classical approaches did not.

During this time the abundance of sheartails have increased, while woodstars have dramatically declined and have been declared endangered by the IUCN since 2011. It has been suggested that the Peruvian Sheartail’s population increase may have had a negative effect on the abundance of Chilean Woodstars. 8VLQJERWKEHKDYLRXUDOREVHUYDWLRQVDQGĆHOGH[SHULPHQWV the aim of this study was therefore to test this hypothesis by quantifying the aggressiveness and territorial competitive interactions between the two species, and testing whether sheartails have a greater reproductive output.

Initially, S. cerulea populations responded positively to even-aged treatments and negatively to uneven-aged treatments, two years post-harvest. Recently, populations of S. cerulea have levelled off at the treatment and control sites. Reproductive success was higher at control sites than at the 2 treatments sites. However, larger sample sizes are needed from control sites to fully assess the effects of forest treatments on reproduction. Our results stress the importance of studying the long-term effects of forest treatments in songbird populations to account for inter-year variation in relative abundance estimates and reproductive output. 121 Nest-predator identity as a key factor to understand the differences in nest predation between urban and peri-urban sites in La Paz Metropolitan area Andrea Salazar1*, Alvaro Garitano-Zavala1 ID t ABSTRACT t Table of Contents related to the corresponding differences in predation rate in WKH0HWURSROLWDQDUHDRI/D3D]FLW\$UWLĆFLDOQHVWVZLWKTXDLO eggs (Coturnix coturnix japonicaPRQLWRUHGZLWKĆOPLQJFDPHUDV were installed in three urban sites and three peri-urban sites; the relative abundances for all the bird species were obtained for each site also.

Hence, the main objective of this study was to document the use of wild food and habitat range by the reintroduced macaws between June-November 2014. We surveyed the presence and feeding activities of macaws along 18 km of trails in the release site and recorded 283 feeding bouts.

This study highlights the importance considering multiple dimension of biodiversity to have better understanding of the potential impacts of land use change. 246 Diversity and distribution of avian haematozoa across an elevation gradient in northern South America ID t ABSTRACT t Table of Contents many groups of organisms. Bird species commonly exhibit narrow elevational distributions and close relatives show sharp replacements along elevational gradients. Although patterns of diversity and distribution of avian taxa in the Andes and other tropical mountains are relatively well known, this is not the case for bird pathogens, which have been hypothesized to mediate elevational replacements and to limit the elevational distributions of species. With the goal of understanding the ecology and evolution of bird-parasite interactions across elevational gradients, we studied the distribution of avian haemosporidian parasites from 700 to 2800 m elevation in the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta (SNSM) in Northern Colombia. A preliminary assessment of parasites detected using microscopy and molecular analyses based on samples collected from ca. 350 individuals of 65 understory bird species revealed a diverse parasite assemblage, dominated by Haemoproteus, followed by Plasmodium and then Leucocytozoon. Tanagers (Thraupidae) and thrushes (Turdidae) showed high parasite prevalence relative to other groups. Overall prevalence reached 30% and peaked at elevations between 1300-1500 m, where parasite diversity was also high. The peaks in diversity and prevalence of parasites at mid elevations may be related to turnover in avian species distributions along the elevational gradient.

We conducted the study in 35 color banded ground-sparrows pairs in Costa Rica, during breeding season in 2014. To examine duet characteristics under mate guarding context, we recorded pair duets produced spontaneously when members of the pair came into contact.

However, we noted that when ground-sparrows produced duets in response to playbacks stimulus, they also approached closer and faster to the speaker, maybe to elicit more aggressive responses. We suggest that duets are important in territory defense and that producing duets with overlapping elements could also be related to producing more threatening signals. 257 Comportamento reprodutivo do Tangará- dançarino, Chiroxiphia caudata(Aves, Pipridae) Paulo V.

Formicivora paludicola é um passeriforme criticamente ameaçado, endêmico de brejos da Mata Atlântica do Estado de São Paulo, com população estimada em 250-300 indivíduos, distribuídos em apenas 15 áreas isoladas. As maiores áreas apresentam 20, 30 e 45 ha. Nesse estudo foram utilizados17 loci de microssatélites para estimar os níveis de variabilidade genética e a conectividade entre estas três populações. O grau de estruturação genética foi um dos maiores já encontrados para aves neotropicais e análises de coalescência revelaram que são historicamente estáveis e que o isolamento precede as ações antrópicas de fragmentação dos habitats. Os tamanhos efetivos populacionais foram pequenos (31-116 indivíduos), porém sem indícios de endogamia. Dado que isolamento histórico pode implicar em adaptações locais, translocações ou reconexão das áreas poderia implicar em disruptura de complexos adaptativos e esta prática não é indicada. Uma vez que as ameaças continuam constantes, sugerimos que novas populações sejam criadas em áreas protegidas, e que indivíduos de áreas distintas sejam utilizados para compor estas novas e protegidas populações. 261 $YLIDXQDGD%DFLD+LGURJU£ĆFDGRULR8EHUDELQKD (Alto Paraná), Triângulo Mineiro, Minas Gerais Gustavo Bernardino Malacco1*, Eurípedes Luciano Silva-Júnior1, Dimas Pioli1 ǢW993$-!%È36!8!'9;È33$-3!1#-'2;!£&38-Ç2+<£3-2'-83 r1!£!$$3|+1!-£W$31 ID t ABSTRACT t Table of Contents 0LQDV*HUDLVDEUDQJHQGR£UHDJHRJU£ĆFDGHNPt $LQWHQVLĆFD©¥RGDVDWLYLGDGHVSURGXWLYDVQRV¼OWLPRV DQRVQD%DFLDSURYRFRXVLJQLĆFDWLYRVLPSDFWRVDPELHQWDLV resultando em paisagem com 23% da cobertura vegetal original.

We estimate a suitability index using bioclimatic variables in MAXENT. We conducted point-counts (3-5) in 53 independent forest sites across the Cerrado central region and estimated abundance of three endemic bird species. The mean abundance was 5.22±0.72 for Antilophia galeata, 2.98±0.88 for Myiothlypis leucophrys and 4.62±0.71 for Herpsilochmus longirostris:HIRXQGVLJQLĆFDQW relationships only for Myiothlypis leucophrys. The model including distance to centroid, habitat suitability and forest amount explained 36% of the abundance variation. Contrary to our expectations, species abundance decreased with increasing amount of forest and increased with distance to the distribution centroid. Regarding habitat suitability the relationship with species abundance was positive, abundance increased in more suitable sites. Thus, we found that at least for one bird species, abundance probably increases towards the periphery of the distribution in areas of suitable climatic conditions. 305 Ara macao movements and conservation: A !+'S8!¡8'9'2;!ࣅ329 ABSTRACT t Table of Contents comparison of results and implications from point counts, ARGOS and GIS tracking technologies Donald J Brightsmith1*, Janice D Boyd1 ǢW'?!9{2-='89-;@ r-+,;91-;,|$=1W;!1<W'&< ORAL PRESENTATION SESSION 13: PARROT ECOLOGY Understanding avian movements is key for conservation, but differing spatial and temporal movement scales force researchers to face complex trade-offs between location frequency, location accuracy, and data collection duration. Nowhere is this clearer than in the study of psittacines where protective housing greatly increases the weight of tracking devices. We have been studying Ara macao movements in Peru using point counts, Argos satellite telemetry, and GPS tracking for 9 +years. Point counts show high macaw densities from WKHSUHEUHHGLQJVHDVRQWKURXJKćHGJLQJZLWKERWKPDFDZ DEXQGDQFHDQGIRRGVXSSOLHVGURSSLQJSRVWćHGJLQJ$UJRV telemetry shows that 1) most but not all birds leave the area post breeding, 2) non-breeding ranges averaged 1384 ± 1183 km2 (N = 9 birds) and 3) birds ranged up to 150 km from the nest. An experimental GPS collar deployed in 2015 gave us 3 weeks of high precision movement data. The bird spent about half the time within 50 m of the nest and trips >1 km from the nest were rare (< 2 per day). Despite the reported importance of clay licks 1) clay licks were visited only 60% of the days during breeding, 2) visits did not occur immediately before or after foraging bouts suggesting clays may not be used to protect from dietary toxins, and 3) licks were rarely visited during the non-breeding season. Conservation implications from our {փdփTT ID t ABSTRACT t data sets are complementary: Argos data suggest that loss of habitats up to 150 km away could reduce breeding populations by reducing post breeding survival and GPS data suggest that conservation of breeding habitat needs to preserve not only nest trees but also nearby regions of high food plant densities. 307 (IHLWRVGDIUDJPHQWD©¥RćRUHVWDOQRFRPSRUWDPHQWRVRFLDO de Corapipo gutturalis em uma paisagem da Amazônia Central Mariana Tolentino1*, Marina Anciães1 ǢW29ধ;<;3!$-32!£&''97<-9!9&!1!AÖ2-! r1!8-!2!;3£'2ধ23|+1!-£W$31 ID t ABSTRACT t Table of Contents encontramos leques.

Large scale commercial forestry has become common practice. However, bird communities have not been fully characterized in afforested landscapes in the Pampas. To better understand avian community response to afforestation we conducted 1573 bird point counts within native (grasslands and forests) and afforested habitat types (pine and eucalyptus) of different ages and management regimes during the 2013-14 breeding season in northern Uruguay, on land managed by Weyerhaeuser Co. and other local companies. We documented 3407 individuals of 112 bird species and used rarefaction to compare species richness and evenness, and assessed community structure among habitat types using multivariate techniques. We found higher species diversity, and compositional differences, in native habitat types versus plantations. Avian communities in plantations were more similar to native forests than to grasslands, with one exception. Newly planted stands, available to some grassland facultative birds, were more similar to grasslands than to older plantations or native forests. As plantations aged, bird community shifted to forest generalist assemblages. Plantations of similar age under different thinning practices had different bird communities but similar richness. As plantation structure can be manipulated with predicable bird responses, this information will assist bird conservation in afforested landscapes. Furthermore, relative value of tree plantations to bird conservation in grasslands should be compared to other land uses such as intensive agriculture. 341 Landscape Perception and the Value of !+'S8!¡8'9'2;!ࣅ329 ABSTRACT t Table of Contents Secondary Forests for Atlantic Forest Birds Cassiano A.F.R.

Secondary forests were important for some threatened and Atlantic Forest endemics (e.g., Amazona rhodocorytha), although sensitive birds were more often associated with mature forests (e.g., Glaucis dohrnii, in isolated patches of mature forest). Unexpectedly, endemic and threatened birds were not markedly distinct in their patterns of landscape spatial response.

In 1999-2000, an isolated population of Ciccaba was discovered in subtropical forests at San Isidro, Napo province, northeast Ecuador (2,050 m elevation). Individuals of this population appear intermediate between C. huhula and C. nigrolineata, suggesting hybrid origin. However, these species ranges in Ecuador are separated by the Andean massif (4,000 m elevation on average), making the contact between C. huhula and C. nigrolineata very unlikely. C. huhula only ranges below 1,000 m elevation in Amazonian Ecuador, with no known altitudinal movements. Further, there are specimens labeled as C. huhula from Jujuy, Argentina (c. 2,500 m elevation), which apparently resemble “San Isidro Owl”, while there are specimens from AndeanAmazonian slopes of Colombia morphologically intermediate, though more similar to C. nigrolineata. Colombian specimens were described as C. spilonotus but later synonymized with C. nigrolineata. The enigmatic taxonomy of the San Isidro population possibly even sheds doubt on the group as a whole. We are undertaking comparative analyses of plumage, vocalizations, and ecological niches of the “San Isidro Owl”, C. huhula and C. nigrolineata. Our study suggests differences {փdփTT ID t ABSTRACT t in ecological niches among the three forms. Vocalizations are generally similar, but the San Isidro population utters some calls not known for C. huhula and C. nigrolineata. We need to revise more specimens, vocalizations, and genetic material of C. huhula, C. nigrolineata (including C. “spilonotus”), to elucidate the taxonomy of the “San Isidro Owl” and its close relatives. 422 0 L[HGVSHFLHVELUGćRFNVDNH\WR understand tropical bird communities Jenny Munoz1*, Jill Jankowski1 ǢW ID t ABSTRACT t Table of Contents species.

From the present to 2050, climatically suitable areas that are covered by IRUHVWVKRZHGDVLJQLĆFDQWORVVIRU H. mirandae, 85.8% for H. kaempferi and 42.6% for H. furcatus. According the IUCN criterion A3(c), they should be then categorized, respectively, as EN, Critically Endangered (CR) and VU. Despite not changing category, H. furcatus showed a substantial range loss, whilst the other two species are predicted to change towards the more threatened category. Thus, this study suggests that CC can be a severe threat increasing the extinction risk to these species. We highlight the importance of additional studies to assess vulnerability, and recommend that CC impacts should be considered in long term conservation strategies for these and other species endemic to the Atlantic Forest. ID t ABSTRACT t Table of Contents been a long held debate that has not been addressed in birds. In this study we used a phylogeographic approach based on one mitochondrial gene (NADH subunit 2) and a comprehensive geographical sampling of the Pantepui region to characterize the genetic differentiation of populations of Myioborus warblers. Four species of this genus are distributed within the region: M. miniatus occupies the lower slopes of most tepuis, whereas a monophyletic group composed of three endemic species (M. castaneocapillus, M. albifacies, M. cardonai) is present in upper-montane habitats. M. miniatus populations were largely genetically undifferentiated, with few differences when compared to populations from the central Andes. However, upper-montane species were clearly differentiated in three monophyletic groups showing a complex pattern of plumage coloration. Both results support a dynamic Pliocene-Pleistocene scenario of dispersal and vicariance challenging the idea of the Pantepui consisting on isolated habitat islands with highly differentiated communities. 448 Myioboruswarblers from the Pantepui region: old endemism of sky island populations?

It’s known, that eggshell of birds evolved to colonize novel environments, to guarantee the correct embryonic development during incubation. Since eggshell structure is leading the gas exchange between the embryo and the external ambient, the shell should be thicker and with less pore density to reduce the water loss and gas exchange in dry and cold ambient, like high-elevation, to avoid the desiccation of the embryo. One ideal place to test this hypothesis of adaptation of the eggshell in tropical birds is the Andes. We evaluated differences in gases conductance rates and eggshell structures, using gases diffusion experiments and scanning electron microscopy. Our functional experiments, involving more than 100 species of Neotropical birds, support the hypothesis that gas diffusion rates across the eggshell vary along elevational gradients. Comparative phylogenetic analyses indicated that eggshell conductance is highly labile evolutionarily and we documented patterns of trait {փdփTT ID t ABSTRACT t evolution consistent with adaptation by natural selection to better retain water vapor in environments with higher gas diffusion rates. However, the mechanisms related to eggshell characteristics underlying this pattern are not the same across our study groups. We found at least two different strategies in variations of the eggshell structure to cope for differences in the gasses diffusion rate of the environment, involving changes in pore characteristics and eggshell thickness. 455 Diversidad y composición de la avifauna en un gradiente altitudinal de Norte de Santander, Colombia Carol Andrea López R.1*, Nabhi Romero R.2, Daira Ximena Villagran3, Linda Carolina Díaz D.4 ǢW2-='89-&!&'&!+Õ+-$!@'$23£Õ+-$!&'3£31#-!TǣW 2-='89-&!&!$-32!£&'3£31#-!TǤW2-='89-&!&-9;8-;!£ 8!2$-9$339Ì&'!£&!9TǥW32ধ)$-!2-='89-&!&!='8-!2! r$£36'AW$32938$-3W99!|+1!-£W$31 ORAL PRESENTATION SESSION 23: AVIAN DISTRIBUTIONS AND GLOBAL CHANGE La variación altitudinal de las montañas genera gradientes climáticos, lo que conduce a hábitats y coberturas vegetales distintas, y a su vez, a comunidades faunísticas diferentes.

We installed 240 nest-boxes between 260 and 1,115 m a.s.l., and monitored the breeding activity of 162 nests over two seasons (2010-2011, 2011-2012). As predicted, the breeding season was 28% and 55% shorter in highland forests during the two seasons.

We reanalysed the morphology of the type specimen, as well as a female specimen postulated to represent the same taxon, and sequenced mitochondrial {փdփTT ID t ABSTRACT t ID t DNA (COI and Cyt-b) of both individuals. We visited the type locality and its environs on multiple occasions at different seasons, searching for birds with similar morphology to the type, without success. Available evidence demonstrates that the type of S. melanops is not closely related to Yellow-bellied Seedeater S. nigricollis, as has been frequently postulated, but is in fact a representative of the capuchinos clade. Our morphological analysis indicates that the most likely possibility is that the male specimen is a Dark-throated Seedeater 6UXĆFROOLV collected within its wintering range, acquiring breeding plumage and showing melanism on the cap feathers; alternatively, it may be a melanistic-capped individual of a local population of seedeaters known to breed in the Esteros del Iberá, Corrientes, Argentina, to which the name 6UXĆFROOLV might be applicable, whilst the name S. plumbeiceps might be available for what is currently known as6UXĆFROOLV. The purported female specimen pertains either to S. nigricollis or to Double-collared Seedeater S. caerulescens. Morphological conclusions agree with our molecular results. A hybrid origin of S. melanops cannot be ruled out from the available data, but seems unlikely. We conclude that Sporophila melanops is not typical of any natural population of seedeaters. 471 Fragmentación de hábitat deSpizella worthenien !+'£S8!¡8'9'2;!ࣅ329 ABSTRACT t Table of Contents la Meseta Central del Altiplano Mexicano Mirna Almejo-Ramos1*, Laura Scott-Morales2, Patricia 9HOD&RLIĆHU3, Carlos Palomera-García1 ǢW'2;832-='89-;!8-3&'£!39;!<8T2-='89-&!&&'<!&!£!/!8!T ǣW !$<£;!&&'-'2$!9 38'9;!£'9T2-='89-&!&<;Õ231!&'<'=3 'Õ2TǤW29ধ;<;3'$23£Õ+-$3&'32;'88'@T!16<932;'88'@ r8!139W1-82!!|+1!-£W$31 ORAL PRESENTATION SESSION 17: HABITAT FRAGMENTATION El gorrión de Worthen (Spizella wortheni) es una especie de la familia Emberizidae, endémica del Altiplano Mexicano que actualmente se considera en peligro de extinción.

The observed increase in body size towards higher latitudes in many endotherms has been explained as a method to enhance body heat conservation in cold habitats, which is known as the Bergmann’s rule. Still, many environmental conditions other than temperature also vary with latitude (i.e. precipitation, seasonality, and productivity) and may also induce morphological changes coherent with the observed pattern.

Esta variação pode estar relacionada como o formato das asas, mas existem poucos estudos que relacionem o vôo e a morfologia alar. Este estudo avaliou a capacidade de dispersão das aves em habitats ribeirinhos da Amazônia, testando se variáveis morfométricas explicam o sucesso ou fracasso das aves em atravessar um corpo dágua. Para realizar os experimentos, capturamos aves e estas foram transportadas a 100, 200, e 300 m da margem, onde eram soltas para que retornassem a margem. Realizamos 495 experimentos em 86 espécies diferentes, de 21 famílias. Para correlacionar o resultado dos experimentos com variáveis morfométricas, mediu-se as aves, em campo e espécimes taxidermizados. Estas medidas foram aplicadas em três equações (Índice de Kipp, Razão do Aspecto, Capacidade de Transporte). Cerca de 67% das aves obtiveram sucesso em atravessar a distância testada (36 spp. tiveram 100 % de sucesso), e 15 spp. (6%) não atravessaram. Duas famílias (Troglodytidae e Thamnophilidae) tiveram sucesso em menos de 50 % dos experimentos, sugerindo uma baixa capacidade de dispersão. O índice de Kipp foi o melhor preditor de resposta aos experimentos, sugerindo que ele seja importante para prever a capacidade de dispersão.

In birds, relatively larger eyes have been linked to predation risk, capture of mobile prey, and nocturnal habits.

Complex habitats such as tropical rain forests provide a mosaic of diverse lighting conditions, including differences among forest strata and at different distances from the forest edge.

Biological activity of ectoparasites, apart from skin injuries and blood feeding, often results in blood remains, or parasite faeces that accumulate and modify the host environment. In this way, ectoparasite activities and remains may increase nutrient availability that may favor colonization and growth of microorganisms including potential pathogens.

Finally, we also found evidence of a link between eggshell bacterial loads and increased embryo mortality, which suggests a bacterialmediated negative effect of ectoparasitism on host offspring.

In La Paz city (Bolivia) 27 periurban and urban areas were declared as protected, but most of them have no management plans or conservation actions and currently several are being lost because of urban growth. We calculated alpha and beta diversity of wild bird communities in 18 Municipal Protected Areas (MPAs), in order to compare with the diversity values of three types of urban environments: “hard urban” (HU), “functional green areas” (FA) and “wild fragments” (WF).

We placed radio-transmitters and followed overall 13 individuals (from the six species) and evaluated their home ranges and habitat use, using VHF radio telemetry, across a landscape composed by pastures for cattle, remnants of riparian forest, restored corridors, isolated trees, roads and country houses. We found that all species mostly used riparian forests and restored corridors over other type of habitat to move across the landscape, regardless their habitat association.

It remains unclear, however, whether vocal changes develop before or after other phenotypic characters (such as plumage), and whether changes in vocal characters precede genetic isolation. Changes in bird vocalizations are important because they can be linked to the speciation process as pre-zygotic isolation barriers. We studied morphological, genetic and vocal variation in three bird species from the family Thamnophilidae (Thamnophilus amazonicus, T. murinus, and Herpsilochmus dorsimaculatus) across the Rio Branco, a well-known biogeographic barrier located in the Brazilian {փdփTT ID t ABSTRACT t ID t state of Roraima. Two different subspecies of Thamnophilus amazonicus (cinereiceps and divaricatus) replace one another on opposite sides of this river and they show marked phenotypic (plumage) and genetic differentiation (~4%). Populations of H. dorsimaculatus across the Rio Branco represent a single taxon, but they are genetically differentiated (~2%) and reciprocally monophyletic, but show no consistent morphological differentiation. Finally, T. murinus lacks any genotypic or phenotypic variation across the river. None of the three species shows consistent variation across the river in the 15 vocal parameters measured. These results suggest that different selective pressures may be acting upon morphological, genetic and vocal characters, and that vocal differentiation may develop in isolated populations only after a considerable amount of time has passed, and after morphological changes have already been established in the populations. 22 Daniela Gomez1*, Roman Ruggera1, Luis Rivera1, Yanina Tejerina, Ever Tallei1, Marisel Morales, Rodrigo1, Natalia Politi1 r1!&!2-'£!+31'A|+1!-£W$31 POSTER SESSION: COMMUNITY ECOLOGY La captura con redes de niebla es una herramienta útil para el muestreo de aves de sotobosque y la tasa de captura es un índice que informa sobre su efectividad.

In order to explore the bird`s discrimination ability in such predator recognizing, VHYHUDOĆHOGH[SHULPHQWVZHUHGHYHORSHGLQ6RXWKHDVWHUQ %UD]LO7RDFFHVVWKLVLQIRUPDWLRQPRGHOVDQGRUYRFDOL]DWLRQV of closely related owl species were presented to the local bird community, meaning different levels of danger and familiarity. Then, composition and intensity of mobbing was measured. {փdփTT ID t ABSTRACT t We found that birds were not able to discriminate owl species within the same genus (Asio and Glaucidium), whether they were familiar or not (sympatric or allopatric). Nevertheless, in a different threat level, when birds were presented to diurnal owl species (less closely related and with distinct diets), the mobbing against the dangerous predator was less intense but in larger groups, compared to non-dangerous predator. This result suggests that birds can access general information about familiar predators and extrapolate when in front of unfamiliar predators. We also provided evidences that birds may recognize distinct predators and the threats they might represent, and choose strategies accordingly to its degree of risk. We highlight that birds exhibit complex predator recognition systems, allowing them to respond in two different ways: detailed discrimination among familiar situations, and generalization while in unfamiliar situations. 58 Primeros reportes de parásitos deSporagra barbata (Aves: Fringillidae) en distintas regiones ecológicas de Chile Danny Fuentes1*, Armando Cicchino2, Sergey Mironov3, Daniel Gonzlez-Acua1 ǢW !$<£;!&&'-'2$-!9';'8-2!8-!9T2-='89-&!&&'32$'6$-2TǣW 2-='89-&!&!$-32!£&'!8&'££!;!T8+'2ধ2!WTǤW 33£3+-$!£29ধ;<;'T <99-!2$!&'1@3($-'2$'9T2-='89-;';90!@!1#!201'2;Ǣ ID t ABSTRACT t Table of Contents aves del neotrópico, el presente trabajo pretende determinar la fauna parasitaria de S. barbata, y además establecer si existen variaciones en la prevalencia e intensidad del parasitismo en siete regiones ecológicas de Chile.

We suggest that ornithologists working on conservation initiatives in the Neotropics require an interdisciplinary training with local relevance because of the reciprocal links between regional environmental and social problems. Jos Toms Ibarra1,2*, J. Cristbal Pizarro3, Antonia Barreau2, Fausto O. Sarmiento4, Mnica Martnez Mauri5, Csar Piones Caete6, Celeste Medrano7 Bird-human relationships represent the complex linkage between biological and cultural diversity, and thus integrative but also critical approaches are needed for their effective conservation. The Neotropics is a vast ecozone including Mexico, Central America, South America and the Caribbean, with the world’s greatest bird diversity and nearly 1,000 human languages. Neotropical languages and other cultural dimensions (e.g. ontology, medicine, food, politics, art) are inextricably linked to birds. This link is evident in the way that HQYLURQPHQWDOGHIRUHVWDWLRQGHVHUWLĆFDWLRQXUEDQVSUDZO and social (poverty, inequalities, cultural erosion) problems synergistically impact avian and human communities. However, increasing academic ultra-specialization narrowly treats causes of environmental problems, and isolates their impacts over either bird or human communities within the ecozone.

The native Bucida buceras had tough leaves with low N content, low arthropod biomass, and only 1 bird species showed a weak preference for foraging in it.

We are studying population-level variation in life history strategies of migratory Fork-tailed Flycatchers (Tyrannus savana) at different latitudes, in Argentina and Bolivia and in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. Our objective is to determine the mechanisms that determine reproductive success between latitudes, testing whether time of arrival in spring at the breeding site affects reproductive investment and success more than local factors such as food availability and nest microhabitat. Through daily monitoring of nests, census of nest predators and sampling of arthropods, we found higher FOXWFKVL]HVDWKLJKODWLWXGHVEXWQRVLJQLĆFDQWGLIIHUHQFHLQ reproductive success between latitudes, even though food availability is higher at higher latitudes. Food availability may explain most of the latitudinal variation in clutch size.

Despite known for many passerine taxa (both oscines and suboscines), these small structures remain unreported from the Furnariida, which is recognized for its distinctive Tracheophone syrinx. Our aim was to report the occurrence and describe the morphological variation of these cartilages among the Furnariida. We analysed 128 syringes, including 55 species representing the 10 families, 12 subfamilies and seven tribes of this parvorder. The Cart. membranosa dorsalis is present in all taxa except Formicarius. Its shape varies, being found as a straight stripe, a falciform bar or an ellipse (the last being typical to Melanopareia). This cartilage shows different degrees of development, varying both in extent and in thickness, from a thin and small stain (eg. Thamnophilus) to a protuberant and widely spread nodule (eg. Furnarius). On the other hand, the Cart. membranosa ventralis is not so widely distributed among taxa neither so variable: it is restricted to some taxa within Melanopareiidae, Thamnophilidae, Grallariidae, Dendrocolaptidae and Furnariidae, and its shape is always a tiny elongated ellipse. Both cartilages may be fused together, in association with the Ligamentum interbronchiale, as observed in some species of Dendrocolaptidae and Furnariidae.

Unlike typical passerines, which commonly have simple call repertoires and complex songs, corvids usually have complex call repertoires and a very low intensity, although extremely complex song. Among corvids, there are 37 spp. endemic to the American continent, those are called the New World Jays (NWJ). Call repertoire descriptions are available for only 12 of these species, and for the remaining 25 information is scarce or absent. Since Hardy (1969, The Condor 71) no attempts of wide comparison among corvids were made. Therefore, we present here the known call repertoires of the NWJ, except for Aphelocoma, and propose a preliminary assessment on function and acoustic structure variation of {փdփTT ID t ABSTRACT t the non-described call repertoires. We revised the available literature and examined 1383 recordings (31h) containing calling sequences of NWJ, mostly obtained from sound collections. We listed all distinguishable call types by visual LQVSHFWLRQDVVLVWHGE\VSHFWUDOFURVVFRUUHODWLRQĆHOG observations, and behavioral notes provided by the authors of most recordings, estimating the most likely functions of nondescribed calls. We described the basic repertoire structure for most species, although more sampling is necessary for a more complete assessment of the NWJ call repertoires. We found that several classes of calls are shared among groups of species and address potential questions to be answered. We make here a call for collaboration among Neotropical ornithologists to pursue an even more detailed review on the puzzling NWJ acoustic communication and sociality. 120 Diet Composition of Cerulean Warbler (Setophaga cerulea) Nestlings Sasha A.

For this, studies in wetlands that tested the relationship between birds species richness (S) with habitat characteristics, were reviewed and only the studies which include the area as a variable were selected, which were from 1978-2013.

However, this remains unproven for many wetlands, considering the changes in soil that may change the prey that birds feed on. We test the {փdփTT ID t ABSTRACT t ID t hypothesis that food resources (i.e macro-invertebrates) determine the abundance and spatial distribution of Numenius phaeopus, Himantopus melanurus and Vanellis chilensis more than other habitat variables. The main objective was to analyze the relationship between the three aforementioned species trophic options and other environmental factors in two spatial scales and different seasons. The study was conducted in Lenga wetland in the Bío-Bío Region of Chile from April 2013 to March 2014 and involved monthly recording of bird abundance as well as other environmental factors (e.g prey resources and abiotic characteristics of their habitat). As it was predicted, the results show that the distribution patterns associated with the abundance of birds were more correlated with the availability of their trophic resource (R= 0.194; p=0.04) rather than with the other variables; but, this may change depending on the season, being the trophic variables more closely correlated with the cold season (R=0.439; p<0.05). In addition, it is revealed that there are differences linked to use at a micro-habitat level. This study highlights the importance of food resources when it comes to birds distribution and use of wetlands such as Lenga, as well as the species intrinsic characteristics, specialization degree about their habitat use, their prey and their trophic niche. 140 Variación en la composición de la avifauna en Page 130, Posters ABSTRACT t Table of Contents XQJUDGLHQWHDOWLWXGLQDOGHOćDQFRRFFLGHQWDO de la Cordillera Occidental, Colombia Diego A.

Our results could also help us to predict which species are more vulnerable to these processes and to identify which characteristics better explain the observe differences in FD. Finally, it would be of great interest to combine other diversity measures (phylogenetic and taxonomic) in order to improve our understanding of how the biodiversity responds to environmental constraints. 177 Capturing the Southern Lapwing (Vanellus chilensis) Ricardo A.S.

Wild birds play an important role as hosts for ticks and as disseminators of potentially infected ectoparasites among distant areas. To investigate a possible role of wild birds as hosts for ectoparasites in the Republic of Honduras, wild birds were trapped by ornithological mist nets at two study locations: Jardín Botánico Lancetilla, lowland close to the Carribean coast, and on Isla de Utila, a small island in the Caribbean Sea. Trapped birds were examined for the presence of ectoparasites, including ticks. Ticks were collected during naked-eye examination using tweezers and preserved LQHWK\ODOFRKRO7LFNVDIWHUWD[RQRPLFDOLGHQWLĆFDWLRQ were individually tested for the presence of pathogens from the genera Rickettsia by PCR. In total, 280 birds were captured and, overall, 25 birds (9%) were found parasitized by ticks. Two species of ticks were found: Amblyomma longirostre and A. nodosum. These species are neotropical, the adult stages feeding primarily on porcupines in the case of A. longirostre, and on anteaters in the case of A. nodosum. Subadult stages feed primarily on birds. Additionally, ticks were found to be infected with Rickettsia amblyommii -organisms of suspected pathogenicity to humans. Further studies are crucial to verify the role of birds as hosts for ticks and their complex role in the epidemiology of tick-borne diseases. 195 ,QćXHQFHRIFRORXUDQGGLVWXUEDQFHRQ Page 147, Posters ABSTRACT t Table of Contents FRQVXPSWLRQUDWHRIDUWLĆFLDOIUXLW%UD]LO Vanessa Fonseca Gonalves1*, Flávio Roque Bernardes Camelo1, Melo Celine1 ǢW2-='89-&!&' '&'8!£&'#'8£Æ2&-! r=!2'99-2,!i(+|,3;1!-£W$31 POSTER SESSION: ECOLOGY & CONSERVATION IN HUMAN MODIFIED LANDSCAPES Fruit consumption by birds may also be affected by human GLVWXUEDQFHDQGE\WKHHGJHHIIHFW7KHXVHRIDUWLĆFLDOIUXLWV is a useful tool to record fruit consumption by birds because it allows some variables to be controlled, such as colour and size, as well as the assessment of interactive effects between variables like environment and color.

Selenium is a micronutrient essential to the development of many organisms, but can become toxic at high concentrations. Waterbirds are used as indicators of contaminants in the environment due to their elevated position in the food chain. The purpose of this study was to determine mercury and selenium concentrations in feathers of waterbirds in the Babitonga Bay. Breast, wing, and tail feathers were collected from seven individuals from three species of the Ardeidae family birds: Nycticorax nycticorax (2), Nyctanassa violacea (3), and Egretta caerulea (2). These samples were found frozen at a temperature of -16°C, within the period of 2008-2011, in the Birds Collection of the Biological Collection Iperoba.

This is observed due mainly to the habitat loss and other negative effects that take place on patches in a landscape, especially the edge effect. Nevertheless, it is important to be careful while JHQHUDOL]LQJVLQFHGLIIHUHQWPDWULFHVFDQLQćXHQFHSDWFKHVLQ distinct levels. For example, planted forest phytophysionomies can act as barriers to the edge effect when compared to open areas. Therefore, we hypothesize that patches in contact with a matrix mainly composed of eucalyptus would have more diverse bird community. We assessed the richness (ANOVA), abundance (Whittaker Diagram) and functional diversity (Petchey & Gaston 2002, Ecology Letters. 5) of birds present in the edge and inside patches of Atlantic Forest (Minas Gerais, Brazil) surrounded by pastures (n=4) and by eucalyptus trees (n=4). Even though all the studied patches showed low species richness and approximate values, the eucalyptus matrix seems to favor the bird community, that showed bigger richness (F=70.5, p<0.05) and evenness in the border of the fragments surrounded by eucalyptus.

The stablishment of a breeding colony indicated a good prospect for restocking and growth. Our objective was to estimate {փdփTT ID t ABSTRACT t population abundance by counting the number of adult individuals. Between July 2012 and March 2015 monthly scans with motorboat were conducted on the margins of the estuary to count the number of individuals. We started counts, in July (2012) with only 17 individuals. The highest number of individuals were registered always in December, 78 individuals in 2012, 282 individuals in 2013 and 563 individuals in 2014. That represents an increase of 261% in abundance between 2012 and 2013. In December 2014, 563 individuals were recorded in the bay, which represents an increase of 99% between 2013 and 2014. Along this years the highest abundance always preceded the breeding season, occurring between October and December, and reduced during the winter months, where we made the lowest counts. The dispersion of youngs and adults over a large area, searching for new feeding areas outside the breeding season, is a characteristic of the species.

Even though this is a relatively common species, a complete description and function of its song is lacking to date. The aim of this study is to provide a characterization of the organization and variability of the song in this species. We present an analysis for one population of breeding males at a nest box assemblage placed at Chascomús, Buenos Aires, Argentina. We examined patterns of syllable and song diversity from 1,021 songs from 48 males (N=31 in the 2014-2015 breeding season; N= 17 in the 2013-2014 breeding season), using one recording for each male. The population syllable repertoire represents over 90 syllables with an individual repertoire of 13 ± 4.6 (mean ± SD) syllables and an average number of syllables per song of 9 ± 4.1. Finally, we found that many syllables are shared by most males, yet their placement in each song and the frequency of use is variable. This preliminary study of song structure shows that the population overall repertoire is large. Moreover, this characterization will enable assessment of potential differences between immature and mature males’ song and, consequently, whether acoustic communication has a relevant role in mate choice.

In this study, we evaluated if environmental heterogeneity explained differences in bird diversity and composition in a continuous semi-deciduous forest. The study took place in “Parque Estadual Mata dos Godoy” (MG), a 650ha reserve located in the north of Paraná State, southern Brazil. We established seven trails in an upland forest (UF) - located in a 600m a.s.l. plateau, and six trails in a riparian forest (RF), which is located on a slope that ranges from 600 to 450m a.s.l. bordered by the Apertados River. Three point counts with 50m radius were placed at 200m intervals on each trail, giving a total of 39 points (3 X 13). Each point count was replicated Page 163, Posters ID t ABSTRACT t Table of Contents 4 times from September to December 2014. We used bird abundance to test if bird composition was different between the two forest types. We recorded 3118 individuals of 115 bird species, 101 species in RF (18 were exclusive) and 97 in UF (14 were exclusive). Both Cluster Analysis and NMDS (stress 8,7) showed a clear difference in avian composition between the two forest types. Fifty-four species were at least three times more abundant in one of the forest types: 38 species in RF (e.g. Psiloramphus guttatus and Philydor rufum) and 16 species in UF (e.g. Selenidera maculirostris and Dendrocincla turdina). This result shows that environmental heterogeneity plays a key role in the maintenance of forest bird diversity in MG. However, the new Brazilian Forest Code has jeopardized the preservation of riparian forests and conservation policies should give more attention to this forest type. 235 Variações no canto de Herpsilochmus longirostris PHO]HOQ7KDPQRSKLOLGDHHP£UHDVćRUHVWDLV no cerrado com diferentes níveis de ruído Vitor C.

Morphological differentiation within the species is ample, and has led to the subdivision of the taxon in more than 10 subspecies, based mainly on plumage color and geographical distribution. One of its subspecies (T. a. daguae) has been sometimes considered different at species level due to the remarkable differences in size and plumage coloration, but no further studies have contributed to clarify its taxonomic situation. Based on molecular and morphological analyses, we determined differences between this and the others subspecies of T. assimilis. Tissue samples from throughout the distribution range were included in the present study. Phylogenetic analyses of mitochondrial DNA showed that samples considered as T. assimilis are separated in two lineages, one of them clustered all samples of T. a. daguae, and the other lineage clustered all the remainig T. assimilis. Multivariate analysis of morphological measurements of museum specimens also supports differentiation of both groups, with T. albicollis, as the sister taxon. All these evidences plus the geographic restriction of T. a. daguae to the Chocó region, suggest that this taxon is a separate species from T. assimilis.

Studies have shown that forest structure is a good predictor of bird composition and that heterogeneous habitats have higher bird richness. An explanation for this pattern is that heterogeneous habitats offer more niche spaces for the bird community. If this is the case, then heterogeneous habitats should harbor species with different ecological traits (body mass, diet, substrate and foraging method). In this study, we evaluated both taxonomic and functional bird richness in a gradient of forest complexity in AF in southern Brazil (Paraná State). Our prediction is that taxonomic and functional bird richness will be positively correlated with forest complexity. We sampled 8 sites along a forest complexity gradient, which was measured with the use of Rapid Ecological Assessment (REA) of forest characteristics (e.g., number of Araucaria trees and dead trees). REA gives a number from 12 (low forest complexity) to 60 (high forest complexity).

Each feeder was covered with a 100g of seeds mixed with 1Kg of sand. In order to observe the reaction of jays to predators near the feeders, we set a plastic snake 5m apart from feeder in three patches, 10 minutes after the jays arrived at the feeder.

We observed direct aggressions (pecks) and harassment between the members of a group of six individuals that visited the feeder without the snake exposed. We also observed that some members of a group had priority in accessing feeders, which suggests a dominance hierarchy. We also recorded food sharing indicating the establishment of social alliances, as reported for other corvids. Our initial data suggest that associations of jays may be a strategy to reduce the risk of predation. Future work will focus on accessing habitat quality and foraging behaviour of jays using giving-up density.

We hypothesized that gap-crossing probability i) is negatively related to the distance between habitat patches, ii) is positively related to the presence of stepping stones and iii) is affected differently by the matrix type. We compared gap-crossing movements within six different matrix conditions (herbaceous and non-vegetated with or without stepping stones, unpaved and paved roads). We used playback to stimulate individuals to cross these different matrices between 153 pairs of habitat patches at Restinga de Massambaba, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Inter-habitat distance, matrix type and stepping stones strongly affected gap-crossing probability for F. littoralis. As expected, the success in crossing gaps was negatively related to the distance between habitat patches, positively related to the presence of stepping stones, and differently affected by the matrix type. Gap-crossing movements were more frequent and wider in matrices with than without stepping VWRQHVLQGHSHQGHQWRIWKHVSHFLĆFPDWUL[W\SH6WHSSLQJ stones reduced the distance between habitat patches and increased the similarity between matrix and habitat patches, consequently increasing functional connectivity.

As captive populations are often small, a major concern of managers is maintaining their genetic integrity. To tackle this problem, the maximum genetic variability should be preserved within and between populations during the captive stage of conservation plans. Then, understanding the levels of population structuring and levels of genetic variability within the different lineages provide important guidelines for management. Because of its conservation status, a successful captive breeding program for the Black-fronted Piping-guan, Aburria jacutinga, has started in the decade of 1980. Here we investigate levels of genetic structuring between and levels of genetic variability within the three the aviaries that compose the original genetic repositories of captive Jacutingas: Tropicus; &(633DUDLEXQDDQG*XDUDWXEDXVLQJQLQHPLFURVDWHOOLWH loci. Bayesian clustering analyses revealed that that CESP lineage diverged from Tropicus and Guaratuba, but no inbreeding has been detected within these aviaries. Then, we propose three main management guidelines: i) as far as inbreeding can be avoided within these captive lineages, {փdփTT ID t ABSTRACT t they should be managed separately to minimize adaptation to captivity, ii) crossbreedings, however, are indicated for pre-release generations. Then, pre-release pairs should be formed and managed separately, and iii) reintroducing the species in areas where it has been extinct is more prudent than supplementing natural populations, as population structuring in the wild is not known and supplementations could involve risks of disrupting local adaptive complexes. 294 $YHVGHVXEERVTXHHPXPD£UHDGHćRUHVWD RPEUµĆODGHQVDQD$PD]¶QLD&HQWUDO importância das unidades de conservação Renata S.

Even though the talares face continuous deforestation, little is known about the consequences of their replacement by exotic woodlands on bird biodiversity. We conducted bird census at 52 points in native and exotic woodlands (Pinus spp. and Eucalyptus spp.). At each point where a bird census was made, we also determined structure and composition of vegetation. Exotic tree plantations showed a reduction in bird species richness of at least 50%. Moreover, bird abundance and diversity in talares was higher than in plantations. Community structure differed mainly in the identity of the dominant species. Furthermore, vegetation structure varies between types of woodland, being exotic tree plantations taller and with different composition of strata. This study shows that exotic tree plantations are unsuitable to preserve bird diversity not only because these woodlands differ in woody species composition but also in structure. The results indicate that a high proportion of bird species, formerly present in the region, are unable to adapt to the exotic woodland resulting in large losses of bird species.

The uneven distribution of research among Brazilian biomes, with the Pampas among the less known, emphasises the importance of studies like ours that helps to guide where to focus future research. 339 3URWRFRORQXWULFLRQDOGHUHDELOLWD©¥RSDUDĆOKRWHV de andorinhão-do-temporal (Chaetura meridionalis) realizado na divisão de medicina veterinária e m Lais P.

Andretti1, Carla S.

From September 2014 to January 2015 we surveyed birds in 13 sites spread across the Brazilian southern grasslands (nine in PA and four in MA biome), aiming to compare their bird communities. Birds were recorded by point counts (24) and transects (12), distributed in areas of grassland as well as adjacent riparian forests, in each of the study sites. We recorded 299 bird species (280 in PA grasslands and 188 in MA grasslands), with 19 threatened species (at regional, national or global level). The similarity between bird communities of the two biomes was 0.56 (Jaccard’s index). The 13 sites showed similar values of species richness, with a mean of 136.9 ± 13.4 species by area (ranging from 114 to 157). The PA biome had 111 exclusive species and 13 threatened, while only 19 species were found exclusively {փdփTT ID t ABSTRACT t on MA grasslands (10 threatened species). The species richness we recorded corresponds to approximately 63% of the total species known to occur in the Brazilian southern JUDVVODQGV0RVWRIWKHVSHFLHVZHGLGQRWĆQGDUHIRUHVW related taxa. Differences between the bird communities of the two biomes might be related to elevation and isolation of the MA grasslands compared to PA grasslands. More surveys would help clarify whether these differences occurred due to sample effects or might be explained by the greater heterogeneity of grassland typologies in the Pampa biome. 345 Breeding success of the Brazilian population of Gubernatrix cristata Christian Beier1*, Mrcio Repenning1, Mauricio S.

It is possible to evaluate forest landscapes conservation status by describing their animal community, as some species are sensitive to changes in forest structure, factors such as vegetation composition and size of forest fragments can determine the presence or absence of such species. A census of the avifauna is necessary for biodiversity conservation planning actions because birds are one of the most distinct and well-described zoological groups, and can be used as bio-indicators of environmental change. The main methodology used for data collection was Fixed Sampling Point, applied monthly in three transects. So far, 90 species have been recorded, from 37 families, of which Tyrannidae (n=8; 8.89%) is the most representative. Three species in “Near Threatened” status (Primolius maracana, Dysithamnus stictothorax and Ramphodon naevius) were recorded; and one species of “Vulnerable” status (Procnias nudicollis).

Extensive riparian forests occur in association to the grassland matrix, extending the occurrence of many forest species. From September 2014 to January 2015 we surveyed birds in 13 sites spread across the Brazilian southern grasslands, through expeditions lasting 4-6 days at each site. We recorded both grassland and forest species, that occur in forest formations associated to these open areas (e. g. riparian forests, forest patches, etc.). We recorded 12 species of forest birds in areas of the Pampas biome (Crypturellus obsoletus, Glaucidium brasilianum, Stephanoxis lalandi, Conopophaga lineata, Chamaeza campanisona, Leptopogon amaurocephalus, Tolmomyias sulphurescens, Euscarthmus Page 211, Posters ID t ABSTRACT t Table of Contents meloryphus, Cnemotriccus fuscatus bimaculatus, Megarynchus pitangua, Dendrocolaptes platyrostris, Tersina viridis), increasing their geographic distributions.

Most of experimental studies assessed female response to reduced effort by males and found that they compensated for the loss by increasing care.

This implies that the evolutionary process creating this pattern involves an element of internal constraints. In order to maintain a record of natural variations between individuals, we analyzed the biometrics of 96 Amazona vinacea: 90 birds were illegal wildlife trade victims and six were offspring of apprehended birds born at the Curitiba Zoo. All subjects were release candidates of the “Reintroduction of the A. vinacea at the Araucárias National Park, Santa Catarina, Brazil” project. In this study we tested the hypothesis that morphometrics would be similar within the group. Using a caliper and scales, the following parameters were measured and the average was calculated: the total length (351,87mm, n=31), tarsus diameter (7,94mm, n=74), beak length or culmen (26,68mm, n =71), beak width (18,62mm, n= 79), tarsal length (23,55mm, n= 64), wing length (217,81mm, n= 81), tail length (11,87, n= 96), total length of the head (61,41, n=51), body weight (373, 71g, n=91).

It is endemic to the Atlantic Forest and has a restricted range on the south coast of Brazil. Currently, the total population is estimated at 6.650 individuals, 5.000 only for the state of Paraná. Among the actions outlined in the National Action Plan for the Conservation of Parrots of the Atlantic Forest, published in 2011, is the characterization of WKHKHDOWKSURĆOHRISRSXODWLRQVRIA. brasiliensis, A. pretrei, A. rhodocorytha and A. vinaceae in the wild.

However, recent molecular studies revealed that Chordelinae is not monophyletic, as Lurocalis and Nyctiprogne are more close related to other groups than to Chordeiles and Podager. Those studies showed also that Chordeiles is not monophyletic, as C. pusillus and P. nacunda are sister taxa. For this reason, P. nacunda was included in Chordeiles, or alternatively C. pusillus was included within Podager. Here we present a systematic review of the group based on external, morphological characters and a phylogenetic analysis of the group based on 40 osteological characters. The analysis showed a strong support for the group composed by Chordeiles spp (including C. nacunda), with absence of Lurocalis and Nyctiprogne. Also, the results showed Chordeiles nacunda and C. pusillus in the base of the clade, as successive sister taxa of the remaining Chordeiles, partially in agreement to the previous studies. This pattern of relationship, and the morphological variation observed between C. nacunda and C. pusillus compared to the remaining species, indicates the need of reinclusion of C. nacunda in the genus Podager and revalidation of Nannochordeiles for C. pusillus.

However studies of avian reproductive success in urban landscapes are scarce. As in fragmented landscapes, urban parks represent fragments of habitat immersed in the urban matrix, hence, park size could play an important role in reproductive success. Thus, larger parks should represent higher quality habitat than small parks. During spring 2014, we selected 17 parks, grouped in threesize categories: small (< 0.99 ha), medium (between 1 and 4.99 ha) and large (> 5 ha). At each park we monitored every nest we encountered for the whole reproductive season (i.e., from September to December), every 4 days. A total of 112 nests of 7 native species were monitored. For each nest, we measured height, tree species and bird species and the nest VXFFHVV7KH0D\ĆHOGUHSURGXFWLYHLQGH[ZDVHVWLPDWHG and used as a response variable.

We assessed movements and home range in two large parks (> 6 ha) and three small parks (< 0.2 ha) contiguous to one large park.

Movement between small and large parks or vice versa wasn’t observed, despite small distance among parks. Contrary to our predictions, we observe a trend with large home range in large parks (mean ± SE: 16097± 3337,5 m2), compared to small parks (mean ± SE: 1874,3 ± 321,9 m2).

This behavior has been described in different animal groups, including birds. Altruism, parental care and prey-predator communication are some of the hypotheses that explains this behavior. In the Neotropics, the Brazilian Pygmy-owl (Glaucidium brasilianum) is known as one of the most common mobbed predators. This study was conducted at the Chapada do Araripe, Ceará. Our main goals were to 1) characterize the assembly of birds that mob Glaucidium brasilianum; 2) assess if the number of individuals and the frequency of each species participating in the mobbing is related to their overall abundance in the studied area; and 3) assess if there is a phylogenetic effects behind species participation. We conducted 5-min playback experiments simulating the presence of G. brasilianum in 116 points, distributed through an area of ~1670ha. Each point was sampled twice (morning and afternoon). We recorded a total of 70 different bird species (of 6 orders and 22 families), which represents ~48% of all bird species recorded at this locality. The participation in the mobbing was not related to frequency and abundance in the area , Phaeomyias murina, Cyanoloxia brissoni and Tangara cayana were the most commonly attracted species, but, are not the most abundant birds species in the area. We found {փdփTT ID t ABSTRACT t a strong phylogenetic signal in the attraction to pygmy-owl song stimuli, as ~85% of the species recorded belong to the Passeriformes, and 24% belong to the family Tyrannidae. 499 Impacto de linha de transmissão de energia sobre a avifauna no sul do Brasil Jan Karel F.

We sequenced 1143 bp of the mitochondrial gene cytochrome b of 10 individuals of P. dumicola sampled in 7 localities (from Amazonas to Minas Gerais) and 19 of P. plumbea from 12 localities along northern and northeastern of Brazil (sampled in Piauí and Pará states). A striking result inferred from the Bayesian analysis was the observed paraphyly of P. plumbea populations from the caatinga dry forest with respect to the P. plumbea populations from Amazonia. Populations of P. plumbea from the state of Pará in the Amazonia group are sister to P. dumicola rather than populations of P. plumbea from the state of Piauí in the caatinga. The paraphyly of P. plumbea might be associated with events of dispersal, with later adaptation to a new habitat and differentiation.

Entretanto, não se sabe se há uma variação comportamental por parte dos machos, e se a preferência de fêmeas é afetada diferentemente entre leques principais e secundários. Como o período reprodutivo do tangará-dançador é longo, é possível que o comportamento de machos e fêmeas desta espécie também variem ao longo dos meses. Por isso, investigamos se a duração das exibições de treino, exibições de corte, e duração das visitas das fêmeas variam entre leques principais e secundários do tangará-dançador, e se estes comportamentos sofrem variação temporal. Para tanto, observamos o comportamento de machos e fêmeas em leques principais e secundários, ao longo de três estações reprodutivas.

Foram feitas medidas de estrutura do hábitat e utilizadas regressão linear múltipla e NM-MDS para análises. Foram registradas 121 espécies, sendo as mais abundantes: Zenaida auriculata, Passer domesticus e Patagioenas picazuro. A riqueza de aves correlacionou positivamente com: número de espécies e de indivíduos de plantas (> 6m); proporção de cobertura arbórea no entorno; distâncias ao remanescente de vegetação nativa e ao centro da cidade e negativamente com o número de pedestres. As aves utilizaram as praças especialmente para abrigo, alimentação e reprodução. A composição da avifauna e as atividades de forrageamento e de reprodução foram relacionadas às características da vegetação (riqueza, abundância e altura das plantas). Concluise que o número de espécies e indivíduos de plantas e a complexidade da vegetação em praças são fatores da estrutura de hábitat essenciais para a riqueza, composição e manutenção da avifauna no meio urbano.

Several studies have pointed out variations in parasite community in relation to {փdփTT ID t ABSTRACT t ID t habitat disturbance. In general, those ecosystems in better conservation state can allow the existence of a more diverse parasite community than more degraded ecosystems, though contradictory results have been found. We are exploring the effect of habitat disturbance on the parasite community of birds living in dry forests of south-west Ecuador, comparing three levels of disturbance (degraded forest, semidegraded forest, and conserved forest). We are evaluating abundance and prevalence of ectoparasites and blood parasites, and also the level of physiological stress response as measured with stress protein levels or HSPs. Moreover, we are exploring the possible relationship between ectoparasite and blood parasite loads and physiological stress levels in birds. We are sampling birds with mist nets in several plots representative of the different disturbance levels. We are collecting ectoparasite samples, and a blood simple to determine prevalence and intensity of infection by blood parasites by means of both microscopy and molecular techniques. We are also estimating stress protein levels from blood samples of birds by means of Western-blot. We present preliminary results describing incidence of several blood parasites and ectoparasites in the different bird species sampled. 555 8UXEXVGRVJ¬QHURVCoragyps e Cathartes Page 258, Posters ABSTRACT t Table of Contents PRUWRVSRUDWURSHODPHQWRHPWU¬V£UHDV da Caatinga, Rio Grande do Norte H.

Portanto esperávamos uma maior abundância e riqueza de espécies destes grupos funcionais nas zonas ripárias que nas não ripárias. Para a amostragem da avifauna, utilizamos redes de neblina dispostas em 10 transectos de 120 m cada, em zonas ripárias, e 10 em zonas não ripárias. No total capturamos 10 espécies do interesse desse estudo, sendo seis espécies frugívoras e quatro espécies nectarívoras. Observamos que não houve diferença entre as zonas ripárias e não ripárias com relação ao número de indivíduos capturados tanto para frugívoros como nectarívoros. No entanto, quando YHULĆFDPRVDGLYHUVLGDGHPHGLGDSHOR¯QGLFHGH6LPSVRQ separadamente para cada grupo, encontramos diferenças entre áreas ripárias e não ripárias. Portanto, este estudo PRVWUDTXHQRIUDJPHQWRćRUHVWDOGD8QLYHUVLGDGH)HGHUDO do Amazonas há diferença quanto à diversidade de aves frugívoras e nectarívoras entre as zonas riparias e não riparias.
