Birds of the Pantanal floodplains, Brazil: historical data, diversity, and conservation

Abstract

The Pantanal floodplains of Brazil are a region of rich biodiversity. To date, the true richness of the Pantanal avifauna has not been explored satisfactorily caused by a lack of studies in the region and, especially, by the divergence of opinion among the works published by various authors on the many species found in the region. This is due to the lack of criteria in examining records, both with regard to the reliability of the identifications and in the precise geographical allocation. Therefore, in the study, we collage findings from various studies and records created by us in the last few decades from 199 distinct locations to produce a list of birds in the Pantanal floodplains. We grouped the results into three lists: primary, secondary, and tertiary. We found that the avifauna of the Pantanal floodplain is composed of a total of 617 species, of which 571 (92%) have supporting records of occurrence (primary list) and 46 still lack documentation (secondary list). The number of species listed here for the Pantanal floodplain represents 32% of all avifauna known to the Brazilian territory. This reflects the importance of the biome, as part of the national territory, for the maintenance of a meaningful avifaunistic richness. Migratory birds (n = 183), notably northern ones (n = 43), are among the main players involved in ecological processes of nutrient cycling and dispersion of important pathogens between the two continents. With regard to conservation, 25 species are included in some category of threat in the lists of threatened species with global extinction. We hope that our list will help future researchers a more definitive approach when researching the avian fauna in this bountiful region.

INTRODUCTION

The Brazilian Pantanal has a National and International recognition as one of the main inland wetlands for its wide territory (Harris et al., 2005Harris, M.B.; Tomas, W.M.; Mourão, G.; Silva, G.J.; Guimarães, E.; Sonoda, F. & Facchini, E. 2005. Challenges to safeguard the Pantanal wetlands, Brazil: threats and conservation initiatives. Conservation Biology, 19(3): 714-720.) and by provide of multiple ecosystem services, such as the maintenance of biodiversity (Mitsch et al., 2015Mitsch, W.J.; Bernal, B.B. & Hernandez, M.E. 2015. Ecosystem services of wetlands. International Journal of Biodiversity Science, Ecosystem Service & Management, 11(1): 1-4.). The avian occurring in the Pantanal floodplain are associated with habitats diversity that is regulated by the annual and pluriannual flood pulse dynamics (Junk et al., 2006Junk, W.J.; Cunha, C.N.; Wantzen, K.M.; Petermann, P.; Strüssmann, C; Maeques, M.I. & Adis, J. 2006. Biodiversity and its conservation in the Pantanal of Mato Grosso, Brazil. Aquatic Science, 68: 1-32.). Thus, the relevance of the Pantanal has been attractive to many naturalists and researchers who focus on elucidate general aspects related to the taxonomy, biogeography and ecology of birds. In 1825, the Austrian naturalist Johann Natterer, coming from the south of Goiás, entered the Pantanal region from Cuiabá on what would be the first scientific expedition to the floodplain in the region of Cáceres, state of Mato Grosso (Tubelis & Tomas, 2003aTubelis, D.P. & Tomas, W.M. 2003a. Bird species of the Pantanal wetland, Brazil. Ararajuba, 11(1): 5-37., bTubelis, D.P. & Tomas, W.M. 2003b. The contributions of museum collection and of records not involving collections to the knowledge bird species composition of the Pantanal, Brazil. Ararajuba, 11(2): 207-214.). Subsequently, Alfredo Borelli and Herbert H. Smith coordinated expeditions around Corumbá and Porto Murtinho in Mato Grosso do Sul (Allen, 1891Allen, J.A. 1891. On a collection of birds from Chapada, Mato Grosso, Brazil, made by Mr. Herbert H. Smith. Part I - Oscines. Bulletin of the American Museum of Natural History, 3: 337-380., 1892Allen, J.A. 1892.

In the 20th century, the Roosevelt-Rondon expeditions took place in the former state of Mato Grosso (Naumburg et al., 1930Naumburg, E.M.B.; Cherrie, G. & Smith, H. 1930. The Birds of Mato Grosso, Brazil: a report on the birds secured by the Roosevelt-Rondon expedition. Bulletin of the American Museum of Natural History, 60: 1-431.), those of James AG Rehn occurred in Descalvados (Stone & Roberts, 1934Stone, W. & Roberts, H.R. 1934. Zoological results of the Mato Grosso expedition to Brasil in 1931 - Birds. Proceedings of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia, 86: 363-397.), and those of the Zoology Museum of the University of São Paulo were located in some locations in the Pantanal region (Pinto, 1932Pinto, O.M.O. 1932.

Between 1940 and 1960, expeditions were carried out by national institutions in the north, the center, and along the meridian of the Pantanal floodplain (Tubelis & Tomas, 2003bTubelis, D.P. & Tomas, W.M. 2003b. The contributions of museum collection and of records not involving collections to the knowledge bird species composition of the Pantanal, Brazil. Ararajuba, 11(2): 207-214.). Their observations and collections resulted in relevant publications on the species found in the region (Travassos, 1940Travassos, L. 1940.

In 1970, specimen collections were made by the Museum of Fauna (formerly Brazilian Institute of Forestry Development) from Fazenda Descalvados, Mato Grosso (Tubelis & Tomas, 2003bTubelis, D.P. & Tomas, W.M. 2003b.

Although the contribution of ornithological information about this vast perimeter is considered reasonable for an understanding of the records and distribution patterns, there is still much information from other ornithological initiatives carried out in the region that has not been adequately catalogued or considered. The gaps begin with Georg von Langsdorff and his great expedition (1826-1828), whose results, although known to exist, are considered of minimal impact. Among others, the collections of Emilie Snethlage in the region of Corumbá in 1928 and of Alexander Daveron along the Paraguay River (including the region of Cáceres) in 1931, each representing an impressive number of specimens that are maintained to this day by the Museum National of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ) and the United States National Museum (Smithsonian Institution), respectively, stand out as deserving of an in-depth analysis (Lopes et al., 2016Lopes, L.E.; Pinho, J.B.; Ortiz, A.; Evangelista, M.M.; Silveira, L.F; Schunck, F. & Develey, P.F. 2016. Birds from Cáceres, Mato Grosso: the highest species richness ever recorded in a Brazilian non-forest region. Revista Brasileira de Ornitologia, 24 (2): 137-167.).

A large part of the true richness of the Pantanal avifauna remains unknown due to the lack of studies in many newly undiscovered regions and, especially, by the divergence of opinion among the various researchers working in the region. These occur largely due to the lack of criteria in examining records, both regard to the reliability of the identifications and in the precise geographical allocation of a species.

Brown-Jr. (1986Brown-Jr., K.S. 1986. Zoogeografia da região do Pantanal Mato-grossense. In: Simpósio sobre Recursos Naturais e Sócio-Econômicos do Pantanal, 1º. Anais. Brasília, DF, EMBRAPA-DDT. p. 137-182.) prepared the first list of birds found in the Upper Paraguay Basin, counting 309 species, and Coutinho et al. (1997Coutinho, M.; Campos, Z.; Mourão, G. & Mauro, R. 1997. Aspectos ecológicos terrestres e semi-aquáticos no Pantanal. In: [p. 195-294]. Brasil. Ministério do Meio Ambiente, dos Recursos Hídricos e da Amazônia Legal. Plano de Conservação da Bacia do Alto Paraguai (Pantanal) - PCBAP. Diagnóstico dos meios físico e biótico: meio biótico. Brasília, Ministério do Meio Ambiente, dos Recursos Hídricos e da Amazônia Legal. v. 2, 400p.) increased this number to 656 species for the Pantanal. However, in both cases, the locations were not georeferenced and the species occurring in the adjacent plateaus were also included in the lists, a fact that made geographic retrieval and data measurement impossible.

Subsequently, Tubelis & Tomas (2003aTubelis, D.P. & Tomas, W.M. 2003a. Bird species of the Pantanal wetland, Brazil. Ararajuba, 11(1): 5-37.) developed a robust and judicious 463 species list, based on records available in the literature, specimens deposited in museums in Brazil and abroad, and new field data. Junk et al. (2006Junk, W.J.; Cunha, C.N.; Wantzen, K.M.; Petermann, P.; Strüssmann, C; Maeques, M.I. & Adis, J. 2006. Biodiversity and its conservation in the Pantanal of Mato Grosso, Brazil. Aquatic Science, 68: 1-32.) mentioned 766 bird species in the Pantanal region, 390 of which are considered to be currently present in the floodplain; however, other records do not present adequate supporting documentation for this claim. A list generated by the Brazilian Institute of Environmental and Renewal Energy Resources (IBAMA, 2007Instituto Brasileiro do Meio Ambiente e dos Recursos Naturais Renováveis (IBAMA). 2007. Biodiversidade do Cerrado e Pantanal: áreas e ações prioritárias para conservação . Série Biodiversidade 17. Brasília, Ministério do Meio Ambiente. 540p.

) based solely on data published by Brown-Jr. (1986Brown-Jr., K.S. 1986. Zoogeografia da região do Pantanal Mato-grossense. In: Simpósio sobre Recursos Naturais e Sócio-Econômicos do Pantanal, 1º. Anais. Brasília, DF, EMBRAPA-DDT. p. 137-182.) while disregarding other available publications, indicates only 290 species for the Pantanal region, thereby severely underestimating the diversity of birds occurring in the floodplains.

According to Nunes et al. (2008Nunes, A.P.; Silva, P.A. & Tomas, W.M. 2008. Novos registros de aves para o Pantanal, Brasil. Revista Brasileira de Ornitologia, 16(2): 160-164.), if one considers all available data for Pantanal avifauna, the number of species can exceed 730. However, these authors only considered 553 species for the Pantanal region, with a caveat that the occurrence of at least 200 species (27.4%) is questionable due to its distribution restriction on adjacent plateaus. Tomas et al. (2008Tomas, W.M.; Nunes, A.P.; Cáceres, N.; Fisher, E.; Campos, Z.; Aragona, M.; Mourão, G.; Antunes, P. 2008. Mammals and birds from Pantanal and Upper Paraguay River Basin in Brazil, Bolivia and Paraguay. In: INTECOL - International Wetlands Conference, 8º. Anais. Cuiabá, International Association for Ecology/Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso/Centro de Pesquisas do Pantanal. p. 228.) mentioned more than 800 species of birds in the Upper Paraguay Basin (Brazil, Bolivia, and Paraguay) of which, at least, 567 had already been recorded in the Brazilian Pantanal region. Petermann (2010Petermann, P. 2010. Birds. In: Junk, W.J.; Da Silva, C.J.; Cunha, C.N. & Wantzen, K.M. (Eds.). The Pantanal: Ecology, biodiversity and sustainable management of a large neotropical seasonal wetland. Sofia, Pensoft Publishers. p. 523-562.) points out between 469 and 522 species for the Pantanal region, whereas Nunes (2011aNunes, A.P. 2011a. Quantas espécies de aves ocorrem no Pantanal brasileiro? Atualidades Ornitológicas, 160: 45-54.) related the occurrence of 582 species for the lowland.

Field guides, such as that by Gwynne et al. (2010Gwynne, J.A.; Ridgely, R.S.; Tudor, G. & Argel, M. 2010. Aves do Brasil: Pantanal & Cerrado. São Paulo, Editora Horizonte. 322p.), indicate a richness of 740 species of birds in central Brazil and, among these, 496 were credited by these authors to the Pantanal region. Pivatto & Bernardon (2012Pivatto, M.A.C. & Bernardon, G. 2012. Guia Fotográfico - Aves do Pantanal. São Paulo, Aves & Fotos Editora. 256p.) and Cintra (2014Cintra, R. 2014. Aves do Pantanal: 523 espécies incluindo cerca de 350 da Amazônia e 450 do Cerrado. Manaus, Editora INPA. 376p.) published guides for the identification of Pantanal avifauna and listed 455 and 523 species for the region, respectively.

Despite being relevant contributions, most of the publications cited here have questionable records and, in some cases, are based on vague geographical limits, thereby making it difficult the understanding of birds occurring in the Pantanal. Thus, in this study, we aim to present a consolidated list of birds for the lowland of the Brazilian Pantanal, obtained through data collection in the field as well as through the compilation and review of a wide range of reliable historical and contemporary records to provide a safer reference list.

MATERIAL AND METHODS

The Pantanal floodplains: location, landscape, and environment

The Pantanal is one of the largest continuous wetlands on the planet. It is located in the center of South America and is cover over more than 140,000 km2 across the Upper Paraguay River Basin and its tributaries that drain the Cerrado region of Central Brazil, and areas of Bolivia’s Chaco region and Paraguay (Harris et al., 2005Harris, M.B.; Tomas, W.M.; Mourão, G.; Silva, G.J.; Guimarães, E.; Sonoda, F. & Facchini, E. 2005. Challenges to safeguard the Pantanal wetlands, Brazil: threats and conservation initiatives. Conservation Biology, 19(3): 714-720.). In Brazil, the Pantanal extends for approximately 250 km in an east-west direction and 450 km in a north-south direction and, despite several elevations that exist inside, many of them isolated, the altitude varies only from 60 to 150 m (Hamilton et al., 1996Hamilton, S.K.; Sippel, S.J. & Melack, J.M. 1996. Inundation patterns in the Pantanal wetland of South America determined from passive microwave remote sensing. Archives für Hydrobiologie, 137: 1-23.).

The landscape in the floodplain of the Brazilian Pantanal is complex, diversified, and occurs in mosaics with diverse phytophysiognomies and ecological situations that are ordered by topographic gradients and flood pulses (Junk et al., 2014Junk, W.J.; Piedade, M.T.F.; Lourival, R.; Wittann, F.; Kandus, P.; Lacerda, L.D.; Bozelli, R.L.; Esteves, F.A.; Nunes da Cunha, C.; Maltchik, L.; Schöngart, J.; Schaeffer-Novelli, Y. & Agostinho, A.A. 2014. Brazilian wetlands: their definition, and classification for research, sustainable management, and protection. Aquatic Conservation: Marine And Freshwater Ecosystems, 24: 5-22.). Natural vegetation of the region is influenced by the adjacent phytogeographic provinces such as Cerrado (Brazilian savanna), Chaco (dry woodland or dry forest), Amazon and Atlantic Forest (Nunes & Tomas, 2004aNunes, A.P. & Tomas, W.M. 2004a. Análise preliminar das relações biogeográficas da avifauna do Pantanal com biomas adjacentes. In: Simpósio sobre Recursos Naturais e Sócio-econômicos do Pantanal, 4º. Anais. Corumbá, EMBRAPA Pantanal. p. 1-8.; Silva & Santos, 2005Silva, J.M.C. & Santos, M.P.D. 2005.

Cerrado: ecologia, biodiversidade e conservação. Brasília, DF, Ministério do Meio Ambiente. p. 224-233.).

The coverage and land use of the Pantanal region is currently made up of natural non-forest formations (grasslands and marshes of perennial or seasonal vegetation) and forest (savanna and seasonal forest) to spaces used by agriculture (pastures and monocultures), in addition to various bodies of water of different natures (Miranda et al., 2017Miranda, C.S.; Paranhos-Filho, A.C. & Pott, A. 2017.

http://doi.org/10.3390/rs12172735...
). All these landscape units are regulated by annual and multi-annual rain cycles that intersect with rainy and dry periods and promote extreme events of floods and droughts, the latter often being combined with large fires (Nunes Da Cunha & Junk, 2004Nunes da Cunha, C. & Junk, W.J. 2004. Year-to-year changes in water level drive the invasion of Vochysia divergens in Pantanal grasslands. Applied Vegetation Science, 7: 103-110.). In general, the Pantanal climate is predominantly hot and humid, with an average annual rainfall of 1,500 mm and a maximum average temperature of 32ºC and a minimum of 20ºC (Alvares et al., 2014Alvares, C.A.; Stape, J.L.; Sentelhas, P.C.; Moraes, G., Leonardo, J. & Sparovek, G. 2014. Köppen’s climate classification map for Brazil. Meteorologische Zeitschrift, 22(6): 711-728. http://doi.org/10.1127/0941-2948/2013/0507

).

In this study, we considered the area recognized as the floodplain of the Brazilian Pantanal region (Fig. 1) within whose limits the respective records of the occurrence of the various bird species were plotted. It encompasses a perimeter of 150,000 km2 exclusively in the Brazilian territory, 4.6% of which is represented by protected areas including 18 private reserves, 1 national park, 3 state parks, 1 municipal park, 1 environmental protection area, and 1 ecological station (Brazil, 2020Brazil. 2020.

Data collection

For the elaboration of the consolidated list of birds of the Pantanal floodplain, we considered the records created by us in the last decades, whether from systematic samplings or not: Allen (1891Allen, J.A. 1891.

) and Benites & Mamede (in press). In all, 199 locations were visited, 29 of which could not be georeferenced. The information on these locations, period of observations, and authors of the records can be accessed in Table S1. Also, the occurrences are mentioned in the literature (Rv/sP), in the authors’ field works (Rv/sNP), and in the form of specimens deposited in museums and institutional ornithological collections in Brazil and abroad (ExM). In addition, data in the form of photographic records deposited in institutional museums (FoM), cited in scientific journals (FoP) or private collection (FoAP), photographic records (FoI) and sound (ASI) records available on internet data platforms, audiovisual (ViM) and sound records (ASM) deposited in institutional museums, and sound records (ASI) deposited in data platforms are available for online consultation (Carlos et al., 2010Carlos, C.J.; Straube, F.C. & Pacheco, J.F. 2010.

Data on specimens deposited in institutional museums in Brazil and abroad were obtained by consulting Tubelis & Tomas (2003aTubelis, D.P. & Tomas, W.M. 2003a. Bird species of the Pantanal wetland, Brazil. Ararajuba, 11(1): 5-37.) and the website (Vertnet, 2021VertNet - National Science Foundation: where discoveries begin. 2021.

). Sound archives deposited in institutional museums obtained from the Arquivo Sonoro Prof. Elias Coelho (ASEC), from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro and at the Neotropical Fonoteca Jacques Vielliard (FNJV) of the Zoology Museum of the State University of Campinas. Regarding the photographic and sound records available on digital media, we evaluated those hosted until Mach 2021 in the WikiAves (WikiAves, 2021WikiAves - A Enciclopédia das Aves do Brasil. 2021.

Records in municipalities that include stretches of plateau (e.g., Corumbá, Miranda, Aquidauana, Coxim, Rio Verde de Mato Grosso, Cáceres, and Santo Antônio do Leverger) were carefully investigated by confirming their locations with the authors to ensure that only records collected from the floodplain were included in the study. When such records were cited in publications without specific details on location, the species were not included in the main list.

Data requirements for inclusion into inventory lists

We adopted the taxonomic classification proposed by the Brazilian Ornithological Records Committee (Pacheco et al. 2021). The primary list, which was composed of species with at least one occurrence record in the Pantanal floodplain provided with documentary evidence, i.e., item/(s) available for independent consultation as a full or partial specimen, photograph, and audio/video recording, which allow the safe and indisputable determination of the taxon. The secondary list includes species with one or more visual and/or sound records in the Pantanal floodplain, but whose documentary evidence is unknown or unavailable. In this context, the filtering protocol is the detailing of the information allusive to the record, necessarily associated with consistency of the distribution and dispersion patterns of the species based on documentary evidence. The primary and secondary lists constitute the main list.

In addition to extinct taxa of nature or those not validated as full species, some species that, although mentioned in some of the consulted sources, presented questionable records with incompatible distribution and/or occurrence only marginal to the Pantanal floodplain were excluded and are present in the tertiary list. In brief, the main list includes only the species that have been proven to occur within the defined geographical limits, based on the following superior evidence, in hierarchical order: ExM, FoM, FoP, FoI, ViM, ASM, and ASI (for details, see Carlos et al., 2010Carlos, C.J.; Straube, F.C. & Pacheco, J.F. 2010. Conceitos e definições sobre documentação de registros ornitológicos e critérios para a elaboração de listas de aves para os estados brasileiros. Revista Brasileira de Ornitologia, 18(4): 355-361.).

Species categorization

The species were categorized according to their conservation status based on the global redlist (Handbook of the Birds of the World & BirdLife International, 2020Handbook of the birds of the world & BirdLife International. 2020. Handbook of the birds of the world and BirdLife International digital checklist of the birds of the world . Version 5.

): Deficient Data (DD), Near Threatened (NT), vulnerable (VU), Endangered (EN), and Critically endangered (CR). Also, we considering the National lists of threatened species (ICMBio, 2014Instituto Chico Mendes de Conservação da Biodiversidade (ICMBio). 2014. Espécies Ameaçadas - Lista 2014. Available: Available: http://www.icmbio.gov.br/portal/biodiversidade/fauna-brasileira/lista-de-especies.html . Access: 28/09/2020.
http://www.icmbio.gov.br/portal/biodiver...
). In addition, we highlight species that show a global population decline (Handbook of the Birds of the World & BirdLife International, 2020Handbook of the birds of the world & BirdLife International. 2020. Handbook of the birds of the world and BirdLife International digital checklist of the birds of the world . Version 5.

). Based on the lists of migratory birds proposed by Nunes & Tomas (2008Nunes, A.P. & Tomas, W.M. 2008. Aves migratórias e nômades ocorrentes no Pantanal. Corumbá, EMBRAPA-CPAP.) and Somenzari et al. (2018Somenzari, M.; Amaral, P.P. do, Cueto, V.R.; Guaraldo, A.D.C.; Jahn, A.E.; Lima, D.M.; Lima, P.C.; Lugarini, C.; Machado, C.G.; Martinez, J.; Nascimento, J.L.X. do; Pacheco, J.F.; Paludo, D.; Prestes, N.P.; Serafini, P.P.; Silveira, L.F.; Sousa, A.E.B.A. de; Sousa, N.A. de; Souza, M.A. de; Telino-Junior, W.R. & Whitney, B.M. 2018.

), the species were initially distinguished as intercontinental (INTER) or intracontinental (INTRA) migrants. The former includes species that make large displacements from the northern hemisphere (Canada and northern USA) towards southern South America (Patagonia). The latter category includes species that move from the southernmost portions of South America towards its northernmost regions (mainly Amazonia) and vice versa.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

According to our study, the avifauna of the Pantanal floodplain is composed of a total of 617 species, of which 571 (92%) have supporting records of occurrence (primary list) and 46 still lack documentation (secondary list) (Tables 1 and S1). In the tertiary list, we include 63 species whose records were based questionable information or incompatible with the floodplain region (Table 2). Of the migratory species occurring in Brazil, 183 species use the Pantanal floodplain during migratory movements. Most are composed of southern migrants (140 species), especially those moving from the southern portions of South America towards Central Brazil and the Amazon. In this group, the most important species belong to the family Tyrannidae (37 species), genus Sporophila (15 species), and family Hirundinidae (7 species). The northern migrants add up to 43 species, almost half (45%) the number being formed by members of family Scolopacidae. Species linked to aquatic environments account for 38% of the migrant species and those dependent on native grasslands in good condition account for 12% (21 species).

Table 2
Tertiary list of birds related to the Pantanal, Brazil.

With regard to conservation, 25 species are included in some category of threat in the lists of threatened species with global extinction (Handbook of the Birds of the World & BirdLife International, 2020Handbook of the birds of the world & BirdLife International. 2020. Handbook of the birds of the world and BirdLife International digital checklist of the birds of the world . Version 5.

http://datazone.birdlife.org/userfiles/f...
); of these, four are classified as “Endangered” and “Critically Endangered”. In the National territory (ICMBio, 2014Instituto Chico Mendes de Conservação da Biodiversidade (ICMBio). 2014. Espécies Ameaçadas - Lista 2014. Available: Available: http://www.icmbio.gov.br/portal/biodiversidade/fauna-brasileira/lista-de-especies.html . Access: 28/09/2020.
http://www.icmbio.gov.br/portal/biodiver...
), three and two species were classified as “Endangered” and “Critically Endangered”, respectively. In the global and national lists, 22 and 13 species are considered “Near Threatment”, respectively. In addition, 13 species are inserted in the category “Data Deficient”, which reinforces the unknown situation of their populations that are possibly subject to numerous types of threats.

The number of species listed here for the Pantanal wetland represents 32% of all avifauna known to the Brazilian territory (Pacheco et al., 2021). In the present study, 153 species were addrd to the previous list proposed by Tubelis & Tomas (2003aTubelis, D.P. & Tomas, W.M. 2003a. Bird species of the Pantanal wetland, Brazil. Ararajuba, 11(1): 5-37.). This reflects the importance of the biome, as part of the national territory, for the maintenance of a meaningful avifaunistic richness. The avifauna of this region can be considered quite rich compared to that found in other wetlands of the world, such as the Okavango Delta in Botswana with more than 450 species (Hancock et al., 2007Hancock, P.; Muller, M. & Tyler, S.J. 2007. Inventory of birds of the Okavango Delta Ramsar Site. Babbler, 49: 3-29.) and the “Esteros del Iberá” in Argentina with 344 species (Giraudo et al., 2003Giraudo, A.R.; Chatellenaz, M.L.; Saibene, C.A.; Ordano, M.A.; Krauczuk, E.R.; Alonso, J. & Di Giacomo, A.S. 2003. Avifauna del Iberá: composicion y datos sobre su historia natural. In: Alvarez, B.B. (Ed.). Fauna del Iberá. Buenos Aires, Editorial de la Universidad Nacional del Nordeste, Talleres Gráficos Volpe/Fox. p. 195-207.). In Brazil, 373 species are listed in the Upper Paraná River floodplain (Paraná and Mato Grosso do Sul) alone (Gimenes et al., 2007Gimenes, M.R.; Lopes, E.V.; Loures-Ribeiro, A.; Mendonça, L.B. & Anjos, L. 2007. Aves da planície alagável do alto rio Paraná. Maringá, Editora da Universidade Estadual de Maringá. 281p.), with an additional, 230 species (Pereira & Poerschke, 2010Pereira, M.S. & Poerschke, F. 2010. New birds records from Lagoa do Peixe National Park, southern Brazil. Biotemas, 23(1): 241-246.) listed in Lagoa do Peixe (Rio Grande do Sul).

The increasing advent of “Citizen Science” practices have made it possible to make an expressive contribution to everything that was previously known about the Pantanal avifauna, especially with the advent of digital platforms such as WikiAves and Xeno-Canto that have been fundamental in expanding knowledge and supporting documentation. However, it is emphasized that there are some limitations to the inadvertent use of this data, such as reliability in identification and inaccuracy of location, which need to be checked directly with the authors of the records. Despite notable advances in the knowledge of the composition of the Pantanal avifauna, there are great geographical gaps, notably in the regions of Cáceres, Paiaguás, and Chaco (Fig. 1), as evidenced in the studies by Frota et al. (2020bFrota, A.V.B.; Vitorino, B.D.; Nunes, J.R.S.; da Silva, C.J. 2020b. Main trends and gaps in studies for bird conservation in the Pantanal wetland. Neotropical Biology and Conservation, 15(4): 427-445. http://doi.org/10.3897/neotropical.15.e52905
http://doi.org/10.3897/neotropical.15.e5...
) and Fernandez-Arellano et al. (2021Fernandez-Arellano, G.J.; Teixido, A.L.; Bernardon, B.; Bueno, E.R.; Ferreira, T.V.; Gonçalves, S.A.; Jesus, M.; Thomas, K.P.C.S.; Zucchetto, M.; Piacentini, V. & Pinho, J.B. 2021.

), who identified a series of locations with poorly sampling effort for the bird inventory.

Biogeographic affinities

The avifauna occurring in the Pantanal floodplain is composed mostly of species that are widely distributed in other South American phytogeographic provinces as well, such as the Cerrado and Chaco regions and, to a lesser extent, in the Amazon, Bosques Secos Chiquitanos, and Atlantic forests (Nunes & Tomas, 2004aNunes, A.P. & Tomas, W.M. 2004a. Análise preliminar das relações biogeográficas da avifauna do Pantanal com biomas adjacentes. In: Simpósio sobre Recursos Naturais e Sócio-econômicos do Pantanal, 4º. Anais. Corumbá, EMBRAPA Pantanal. p. 1-8.). The similarities between the bird communities of the Pantanal region and the Cerrado region are to be expected as one-third of the Pantanal region is covered by the savanna phytophysiognomies (Ratter et al., 2003Ratter, J.A.; Bridgewater, J.F. & Ribeiro, J.F. 2003. Analysis of the floristic composition of the Brazilian cerrado vegetation III: comparison of the woody vegetation of 376 areas. Edinburgh Journal Botany, 60: 57-109.). Species with a wide distribution in the Cerrado region (Silva, 1995Silva, J.M.C. 1995. Birds of the Cerrado region, South America. Steenstrupia, 21: 69-92.; Silva & Bates, 2002Silva, J.M.C. & Bates, J.M. 2002. Biogeographic patterns and conservation in the South American Cerrado: a tropical savanna hotspot. BioScience, 52(3): 225-233.) such as Penelope ochrogaster, Uropelia campestris, Alipiopsitta xanthops, Saltatricula atricollis, and Basileuterus culicivorus are also widespread in the floodplain. The Chaco province enters a few kilometers in to Brazil, notably around the municipality of Porto Murtinho, in the southern part of the Pantanal region (Prado 1993aPrado, D.E. 1993a. What is the Gran Chaco vegetation in South America? I. A review. Constribution to the study of flora and vegetation of the Chaco. V. Candollea, 48(1): 145-172., bPrado, D.E. 1993b. What is the Gran Chaco vegetation in South America? I. A redefinition. Constribution to the study of flora and vegetation of the Chaco. VII. Candollea, 48(2): 615-629.; Prado & Gibbs, 1993Prado, D.E. & Gibbs, P.E. 1993. Patterns of species distributions in the dry seasonal forest South America. Annals of the Missouri Botanic Garden, 80(4): 902-927.; Straube et al., 2006aStraube, F.C.; Urben-Filho, A.; Pivatto, M.A.C.; Nunes, A.P. & Tomas, W.M. 2006a. Nova contribuição à ornitologia do Chaco Brasileiro (Mato Grosso do Sul, Brasil). Atualidades Ornitológicas, 134: 1-27.), and the only species that can be considered endemic to this region is Saltatricula multicolor. However, there are some taxa, whose distribution is largely centered in the Upper Paraguay River Basin, notably in the lowland and western edge of the Pantanal, and which, in a way, can be considered typical of the Chaco region: Ortalis canicollis, Aratinga nenday, Nystalus striatipectus, Melanerpes cactorum, Celeus lugubris, Xiphocolaptes major, Paroaria coronata, and Microspingus melanoleucus.

Most of the typical species of the Amazon Basin (Silva, 1996Silva, J.M.C. 1996. Distribuition of Amazonian and atlantic birds in gallery forest of the cerrado region, south America. Ornitologia Neotropica, 7 (1): 1-18.) have the northern portion of the floodplain (Santo Antônio do Leverger and the Cáceres region), which serves as the southern most limit of its distribution. In this context, Tinamus tao, Pauxi tuberosa, Helicolestes hamatus, Megascops usta, Trogon melanurus, Pteroglossus inscriptus, Pteroglossus bitorquatus, Campephilus rubricollis, and Thamnophilus amazonicus are the outstanding species in this region. Other species, however, extend their southern limits to the western edge in the Serra do Amolar region (Nunes et al., 2018Nunes, A.P.; Vasconcelos, M.F.; Hoffmann, D.; Souza, L.N.; Gomes, C.R.G.; Epifânio, A.D.; Godoi, M.N.; Tambelini, F.A.T.; Straube, F.C.; Silva, P.A.; Posso, S.R.; Laps, R.R.; Faria, S.P. & Tomas, W.M. 2018. Aves da borda oeste do Pantanal, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brasil. Atualidades Ornitológicas, 206: 47-69.) such as Pseudastur albicollis, Coccycua minuta, Veniliornis affinis, and Dendroplex picus. The Bosques Secos Chiquitanos dry forests extend tangentially to the far west of Mato Grosso and Mato Grosso do Sul (Prado & Gibbs, 1993Prado, D.E. & Gibbs, P.E. 1993. Patterns of species distributions in the dry seasonal forest South America. Annals of the Missouri Botanic Garden, 80(4): 902-927.; Timothy et al., 2006Timothy, J.K.; Chavez, E.; Peña-Claros, M.; Toledo, M.; Arroyo, L.; Caballero, J.; Correa, L.; Guillén, R.; Quevedo, R.; Saldias, M.; Soria, L.; Uslar, Y.; Vargas, I. & Steininger, M. 2006.

London, Taylor & Francis. p. 213-233.; Werneck et al., 2011Werneck, F.P.; Costa, G.C.; Colli, G.R.; Prado, D.E. & Sites-Jr., J.W. 2011. Revisiting the historical distribution of Seasonally Dry Tropical Forests: new insights based on palaeodistribution modelling and palynological evidence. Global Ecology and Biogeography, 20: 272-288.). At least four species occurring in the Pantanal floodplain have distributions centered on these Chiquitanos dry woods (Vasconcelos & Hoffmann, 2006Vasconcelos, M.F. & Hoffmann, D. 2006. Os Bosques Secos Chiquitanos também são nossos! Atualidades Ornitológicas, 130: 10-11., Nunes et al., 2018Nunes, A.P.; Vasconcelos, M.F.; Hoffmann, D.; Souza, L.N.; Gomes, C.R.G.; Epifânio, A.D.; Godoi, M.N.; Tambelini, F.A.T.; Straube, F.C.; Silva, P.A.; Posso, S.R.; Laps, R.R.; Faria, S.P. & Tomas, W.M. 2018. Aves da borda oeste do Pantanal, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brasil. Atualidades Ornitológicas, 206: 47-69.): Phaethornis subochraceus, Pyrrhura molinae, Thamnophilus sticturus, and Cantorchilus guarayanus.

Migration movement

Of the migratory species occurring in Brazil (Somenzari et al., 2018Somenzari, M.; Amaral, P.P. do, Cueto, V.R.; Guaraldo, A.D.C.; Jahn, A.E.; Lima, D.M.; Lima, P.C.; Lugarini, C.; Machado, C.G.; Martinez, J.; Nascimento, J.L.X. do; Pacheco, J.F.; Paludo, D.; Prestes, N.P.; Serafini, P.P.; Silveira, L.F.; Sousa, A.E.B.A. de; Sousa, N.A. de; Souza, M.A. de; Telino-Junior, W.R. & Whitney, B.M. 2018. An overview of migratory birds in Brazil. Papéis Avulsos de Zoologia, 58: 1-66. http://doi.org/10.11606/1807-0205/2018.58.03
http://doi.org/10.11606/1807-0205/2018.5...
), at least a third use the Pantanal floodplain as a stopover or wintering site during migratory movements across the American continent to a greater or lesser extent. Waterfowl migratory displacements represent a significant portion of inter- and intracontinental migrants, which is expected for seasonally flooded environments (Oliveira, 2006Oliveira, D.M.M. 2006. Efeitos bióticos e abióticos de ambientes alagáveis nas assembleias de aves aquáticas e piscívoras no Pantanal, Brasil. Manaus, Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas da Amazônia, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Ecologia. Tese de Doutorado. 198p.; Nunes & Tomas, 2008Nunes, A.P. & Tomas, W.M. 2008. Aves migratórias e nômades ocorrentes no Pantanal. Corumbá, EMBRAPA-CPAP.; Donatelli et al., 2017Donatelli, R.J.; Vianna, R.; Martins, R.M.; Whitacker, R.; Eaton, D.P.; Cardoso, G.S. & Rodrigues, F.G. 2017. Temporal and spatial variation of richness and abundance of the community of birds in the Pantanal wetlands of Nhecolândia (Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil). Revista de Biologia Tropical, 65(4): 1358-2017.). In this context, some anatids (Coscoroba coscoroba, Callonetta leucophrys, Anas bahamensis, Spatula platalea, Netta peposaca, and Oxyura vittata) stand out, which reproduce mainly in Rio Grande do Sul, southern Bolivia, and northwestern Argentina regions, then move to the floodplain of the Pantanal during the winter and spend the dry periods in southern South America (Nunes & Tomas, 2008Nunes, A.P. & Tomas, W.M. 2008. Aves migratórias e nômades ocorrentes no Pantanal. Corumbá, EMBRAPA-CPAP.). With regard to migrants dependent on aquatic habitats, sandpipers (genera Tringa and Calidris) stand out for their long-distance displacement from breeding areas in the tundra to wintering sites in Patagonia (Nunes & Tomas, 2008Nunes, A.P. & Tomas, W.M. 2008. Aves migratórias e nômades ocorrentes no Pantanal. Corumbá, EMBRAPA-CPAP.), therefore being the Pantanal mudflats habitats a very important stopover for Scolopacidae family (Serrano, 2010Serrano, I.L. 2010. Distribuição e conservação de aves migratórias neárticas da Ordem Charadiiformes (famílias Charadriidae e Scolopacidae) no Brasil. Belém, Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi/Universidade Federal do Pará, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Zoologia.

http://doi.org/10.4257/oeco2020.2403.07...
). The occurrence of Nearctic migratory species, such as Numenius hudsonicus, Arenaria interpres, Calidris alba, C. pusilla, C. minutilla, C. bairdii, Xema sabini, Leucophaeus pipixcan, and Chlidonias niger, can be considered accidental since the Pantanal floodplain not usual route for these species (Serrano, 2010Serrano, I.L. 2010. Distribuição e conservação de aves migratórias neárticas da Ordem Charadiiformes (famílias Charadriidae e Scolopacidae) no Brasil.

Antas et al. (2016Antas, P.T.Z.; Carrara, L.A.; Ubaid, F.K.; Oliveira-Júnior, S.B. & Ferreira, L.P. 2016. Aves coloniais da Reserva Particular do SESC Pantanal. Conhecendo o Pantanal 10. Rio de Janeiro, SESC, Departamento Nacional. 236p.) reported that young Rynchops niger birds banded in the SESC Pantanal in Barão de Melgaço (MT) were recaptured in the Mar Chiquita lagoon near Mar del Plata in Argentina, and in Lagoa do Peixe (Rio Grande do Sul). After the reproductive period, which coincides with the end of the rainy season, the population of Pheucticus aureoventris disperses from the Andes pre-mountain range to the Pantanal floodplain and surrounding plateaus from May to August (Nunes, 2008Nunes, A.P. 2008. Distribuição de rei-do-bosque (Pheucticus aureoventris, Cardinalidae) no Brasil: revisão dos registros históricos e recentes. Atualidades Ornitológicas, 142: 38-40.).

There is a great flow of migratory birds coming from the southernmost regions of South America, notably the seedeaters (Sporophila), to central and northern Brazil. Some species (S. hypoxantha, S. caerulescens, S. iberaensis, S. palustris, and S. ruficollis) reproduce in the hydromorphic fields in the southern regions of South America and appear in large numbers in the native fields of the Pantanal during the winter (Nunes & Tomas, 2008Nunes, A.P. & Tomas, W.M. 2008. Aves migratórias e nômades ocorrentes no Pantanal. Corumbá, EMBRAPA-CPAP.).

Migratory birds, notably northern ones, are among the main players involved in ecological processes of nutrient cycling and dispersion of important pathogens between the two continents (Kawamoto et al., 2005Kawamoto, A.H.N.; Mancini, D.A.P.; Pereira, L.E.; Cianciarullo, A.M.; Cruz, A.S.; Dias, A.L.F.; Mendonça, R.M.Z.; Pinto, J.R. & Durigon, E.L. 2005.

).

Endangered species

According to the Handbook of the Birds of the World & BirdLife International (2020Handbook of the birds of the world & BirdLife International. 2020. Handbook of the birds of the world and BirdLife International digital checklist of the birds of the world . Version 5. Available: Available: http://datazone.birdlife.org/userfiles/file/Species/Taxonomy/HBW-BirdLife_Checklist_v5_Dec20.zip . Access: 02/01/2021.
http://datazone.birdlife.org/userfiles/f...
), 231 species occurring in the Pantanal region are experiencing population declines. However, most of them comprise common species with viable and vigorous populations in the floodplains, a fact that highlights the Pantanal region as an important biological refuge for birds in South America (Nunes, 2009Nunes, A.P. 2009. Estado de conservação da avifauna ameaçada de extinção ocorrente no Pantanal, Brasil. Atualidades Ornitológicas, 157: 85-98.). Of these, Rhea americana and Crax fasciolata are considered “Near Threatened” and “Vulnerable”, respectively, at a global scale. Hasenclever et al. (2004Hasenclever, L.; Reiman, C.: Mourão, G.M. & Campos, Z.M.S. 2004. Densidades, tamanho de grupo e reprodução de emas no Pantanal Sul. Boletim de Pesquisa & Desenvolvimento, EMBRAPA-CPAP, 55: 1-17.) estimated 6,500 R. americana individuals across the Pantanal floodplain, whereas the estimated population ranged from 1 to 2 individuals per km2 in western Nhecolândia (Gräbin et al., 2012Gräbin, D.M.; Tomas, M.A. & Tomas, W.M. 2012. Densidade de Rhea americana em três paisagens diferentes do Pantanal da Nhecolândia, MS. Oecologia Australis, 16(4): 905-913.). In turn, the density estimates of C. fasciolata in western Nhecolândia varied according to habitat, between 3 and 5 individuals per hectare in open and forested areas, respectively (Nunes, 2015Nunes, A.P. 2015. Efeito da heterogeneidade da paisagem e do habitat na comunidade de aves no oeste do Pantanal da Nhecolândia, Mato Grosso do Sul. Campo Grande, Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso do Sul, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Ecologia e Conservação. Tese de Doutorado. 263p.).

In addition to deforestation and replacement of natural landscapes by cultivated pastures (Tomas et al., 2009Tomas, W.M.; Mourão, G.M.; Campos, Z.M.S.; Salis, S.M. & Santos, S.A. 2009. Intervenções humanas na paisagem e nos habitats do Pantanal. Corumbá, EMBRAPA-CPAP.), extreme drought and fires (Marengo et al., 2021Marengo, J.A.; Cunha, A.P.; Cuartas, L.A.; Leal, K.R.D.; Broedel, E.; Seluchi, M.E.; Michelin, C.M.; Baião, C.F.P.; Ângulo, E.C.; Almeida, E.K.; Kazmierczak, M.L.; Mateus, N.P.A.; Silva, R.C. & Bender, F. 2021. Extreme drought in the Brazilian Pantanal in 2019-2010: characterization, causes, and impacts. Frontiers in Water, 3. http://doi.org/10.3389/frwa.2021.639204
http://doi.org/10.3389/frwa.2021.639204...
; Pivello et al., 2021) that have occurred in recent years have seriously threatened regional richness and diversity (Berlinck et al., 2021Berlinck, C.N.; Lima, L.H.A.; Pereira, A.M.M.; Carvalho Jr., E.A.R.; Paula, R.C.; Tomas, W.M. & Morato, R.G. 2021. The Pantanal is on fire and only a sustainable agenda can save the largest wetland in the world. Brazilian Journal of Biology, 82: 1-2. http://doi.org/10.1590/1519-6984.244200
http://doi.org/10.1590/1519-6984.244200...
). The fires that occurred in the Pantanal region in 2020 destroyed 29% of the native vegetation; more than 4% of the burned area corresponded to conservation sites (Libonati et al., 2020Libonati, R.; DaCamara, C.C.; Peres, L.F.; Carvalho, S. & Garcia, L.C. 2020. Rescue Brazil’s burning Pantanal wetlands. Nature, 588: 217-219.). Four million hectares of forest, cerrado, and savanna were burned, with the northern portion of the floodplain being the most affected by the fires (Libonati et al., 2020Libonati, R.; DaCamara, C.C.; Peres, L.F.; Carvalho, S. & Garcia, L.C. 2020. Rescue Brazil’s burning Pantanal wetlands. Nature, 588: 217-219.). It is noteworthy that the region affected by the fires coincides with the refuges of large populations of two of the most threatened species occurring in the Pantanal floodplain: the Chestnut-bellied Guan (Penelope ochrogaster) and the Hyacinth Macaw (Anodorhynchus hyacinthinus). In addition, many migratory species, notably those dependent on native grasslands habitats such as most seedeaters (Nunes & Tomas, 2008Nunes, A.P. & Tomas, W.M. 2008. Aves migratórias e nômades ocorrentes no Pantanal. Corumbá, EMBRAPA-CPAP.), were also affected by the loss of feeding sites due to these fires. Based on the type of habitat they explore and nesting sites, it is speculated that more than half of the bird species that occur in the Pantanal may have had their populations affected to a higher or lower extent by the fires. However, the effects of these events on populations of endangered, migrant, and even common species in the Pantanal are still unknown. Considering the future scenario of climate change, the traditional and sustainable management of the Pantanal, sustainable fire management, and maintenance of the mosaic and spatial arrangement of the landscape units intact and continuous is essential to maintain the diversity in this unique and fragile ecosystem.
