Abstract:

Polish naturalists: Konstanty Jelski (1837–1896), Jan Sztolcman (1854–1928) and Jan Kalinowski (1857–1941) were active in Peru in the second half of the 19th and earliest of 20th century. Jelski stayed in Peru in the years 1869–1879, Sztolcman twice in the years 1875–1881 and 1882–1884, and Kalinowski arrived in 1889 and stayed in Peru until his death. Their stay was aimed at collecting rich, little-known fauna, mainly birds. The work of these naturalists was sponsored by the Branicki family. The collected fauna specimens were sent to the Zool

Abstract:

The remote Nangaritza Valley of southeast Ecuador has high bird diversity, combining Amazonian birds with species typical of eastern Andean slopes and foothills, a small number of taxa endemic to the Cordillera del Cóndor region of southern Ecuador and northern Peru, as well as a few forms from the dry Marañón valley region. Here, we update and review avifaunal records from the Nangaritza Valley, comparing them with the bird fauna of the Cordillera del Kutukú and making a brief assessment of bird conservation in the area. To date, 535 species are known to occur in the Nangaritza Valley, includ

Abstract:

Abstract We report the first known nest of the Pale-eyed Blackbird (Agelaius xanthophthalmus) and describe the behavior of breeding and nonbreeding pairs at Cocha Cashu, Manu National Park, Peru. Birds traveled as pairs within limited areas, whether or not they were breeding. During incubation, which is performed only by the female, the male typically remains near the nest and the birds are in regular vocal contact by means of frequent duets. Its monogamous social system is similar to that of other marsh-nesting species in its clade.

ABSTRACT Enterocytozoon bieneusi was detected in 24 of 83 samples from birds of the orders Columbiformes, Passeriformes, and Psittaciformes. It was identical to or closely related to the Peru6 genotype, which was previously found in humans in Peru. Thus, various birds can be a significant source of environmental contamination by potentially human-pathogenic E. bieneusi.

Abstract:

Well established geographic-range limits and elevational distributions are important to address questions regarding avian systematics, ecology, evolution, and conservation. In spite of recent advances, significant gaps in knowledge remain for bird distributions in South America, especially in high-elevation environments. During fieldwork in 2007-2009 we recorded elevational and geographical data for birds occurring in the extreme high Andes of central and southern Peru. Here we report significant records along with natural history notes for some species. These records illustrate the opportunit

Abstract:

The Tumbesian region of Peru and Ecuador, located within a global biodiversity hotspot, is home to a large number of endemic and little-known species. Endemic terrestrial birds (tinamous, cracids, and doves) are at increased risk of extinction due to restricted distribu-tion and exposure to habitat conversion. In this study, we used 24 camera traps in Cerros de Amotape National Park (northwestern Peru) to record terrestrial birds at three sites, each representing a different forest type: dry, evergreen, and transitional forests. After 4318 camera-days of results, we obtained 334 independent ev

Abstract:

Bird censuses in Peru began in the early twentieth century with seabird censuses carried out by the Compañía Peruana del Guano and later by IMARPE. Between 1992 and 2016 annual censuses were carried out, in 61 wetlands, in 12 departments of Peru, recording a total of 151 species between resident and migratory. The censuses constitute a great contribution to the knowledge of waterbird species and to the synergies between institutions and ornithologists who, through volunteering, compile important information for species conservation and wetland management in the Andean slopes.

Abstract:

The Peruvian diving petrel Pelecanoides garnotii is endemic to the Peruvian or Humboldt Current. Descriptions of past colonies suggest that the species was once abundant in Peru, but harvesting guano on its nesting islands and killing the birds for their meat caused a drastic decline in the population. Fishing activities and direct exploitation threaten the only two remaining breeding colonies in Peru. There are an estimated 4000 breeding individuals left, but unless they are protected the species will continue to decline.

AIV is an enveloped, negative-sense and single-stranded RNA virus with a segmented genome. The eight genomic segments, comprising the whole genome, encode for eleven proteins. Within these proteins, Hemagglutinin (HA) and Neuraminidase (NA) are the most relevant for studies of evolution and pathogenesis considering their role in viral replication, and have also been used for classification purposes.

Abstract:

Marek’s disease is caused by Mardivirus gallidalpha2, commonly known as Marek’s disease virus (MDV). This pathogen infects various bird species resulting in a range of clinical manifestations. The meq gene, which is crucial for oncogenesis, has been extensively studied, but molecular investigations of MDV in noncommercial South American birds are limited. This study detected MDV in backyard and ornamental birds from Brazil and Peru and characterized the meq gene. MDV was confirmed in all seven outbreaks examined. Three isoforms of meq (S-meq, meq, and L-meq) and two to seven proline repeat reg

Abstract:

When people hear bird sounds, they understand them on various levels that are interpreted according to cultural context. Among Indigenous cultures of Latin America, avian voices are understood in relation to group identity, kinship affiliation, and personal experience, such as dreams and vision quests. Birds are recognized as social actors with their own voices that express intentions, desires, needs, and responsibilities. Certain birds may impart messages to specific people, and stories of these personal interactions represent both traditional values as well as individual explanations for wha

Abstract:Calcium is an important nutrient for birds, especially for eggshell production and the mineralization of the skeleton of developing young. In temperate regions insects and seeds that form the bulk of the diet of breeding passerines do not contain sufficient calcium to meet the needs of breeding females and young; these birds obtain their calcium by eating snails, woodlice and millipedes. Little is known about the way tropical frugivorous passerines meet their calcium needs. The calcium contents of fruits of 34 species eaten by birds during the breeding season in mature floodplain fore

Abstract:

Phthirusa pyrifolia (suelda con suelda), a very common hemi-parasitic species of camu-camu (Myrciaria dubia), was always considered an object of dispersal by birds. Given the limited information on the subject, this study was developed in a flood-prone camu-camu experimental plot, on the banks of the Amazon River in the San Miguel-IIAP Experimental Center. Capture nets were installed between 5:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. in areas with the greatest presence of birds, with inspections every 30 minutes. Once the captured birds were identified, feces were analyzed to determine

Abstract:

Peru ranks among the three countries with the highest bird species diversity globally and a majority of those species are found in the Peruvian Amazon. However, birds in this area are currently facing serious anthropogenic threats. Genetic and genomic methods are becoming important tools for avian biodiversity monitoring and conservation planning. Comprehensive molecular libraries that are publicly available are key to the effective deployment of these tools. We analyze the information gaps for four molecular markers in the most important genetic sequence databases, Barcode of Life Data System

Abstract:

The diversity of permanent ectoparasites is likely underestimated due to the difficulty of collecting samples. Lice (Insecta: Phthiraptera) are permanent ectoparasites of birds and mammals; there are approximately 5,000 species described and many more undescribed, particularly in the Neotropics. We document the louse genera collected from birds sampled in Peru (2006–2007) and Colombia (2009–2016), from 22 localities across a variety of ecosystems, ranging from lowland tropical forest and Llanos to high elevation cloud forest. We identified 35 louse genera from a total of 210 bird species belon

Abstract:

Abstract:The relative effectiveness of arboreal or terrestrial birds at dispersing seeds of Ormosia macrocalyx and O. bopiensis (Fabaceae: Papilionoideae) were studied in south-eastern Peru. Seeds of both species were either scarified, to represent seed condition after dispersal by terrestrial birds, or left intact, to represent seed condition after dispersal by arboreal birds. Seeds were distributed along forest transects, and germination, seedling development and mortality were monitored to determine the successes of the two groups at producing seedlings. Scarified seeds germinated with the
