    Migration and other movements among the lower Paraná river valley wetlands, Argentina and south Brazil/Pantanal wetlands.
    (Bird Conservation International, 1994) Antas, Paulo de Tarso Zuquim
    The southern portion of South America plays an important role for the conserva tion of many waterfowl and waders. Migratory movements were, till recently, known only for Arctic or Patagonian species. The only exception was the South ern Pochard Netta peposaca, with a west-east winter migration from the lower Parana River valley to south Brazil coastal wetlands. The banding studies that have been conducted by the Centro de Pesquisas para a Conservacao das Aves Silvestres (CEMAVE/IBAMA) since 1980, directly or through agreements with local organizations, showed more details of this migration, plus indications that other aquatic species such as Chilean Flamingo Phoenicopterus chilensis, other duck species, Neotropic Cormorant Phalacrocorax olivaceus and White-faced Ibis Plegadis chihi may follow the same pattern. A migration into the same area of the Pantanal population of the Wood Stork Mycteria americana was only recently discovered, and other species may also do likewise when the Pantanal is season ally flooded. The studies of such bird migration or movements between the main South American wetlands are of great importance to understanding their conservation needs, especially when international cooperation among the coun tries plays a most important role. The region has been suffering human pres sures of various types, from land reclamation for pasture and/or agriculture to the operation, in the last 30 years, of big hydroelectric dams which affect the natural flow of rivers or keep flood-plains under water. The impending con struction of the Hidrovia Parana/Paraguay, a large project for heavy river use as a main transportation route, may represent an enormous impact on such rich aquatic habitats, demanding immediate cooperation among the countries involved to mitigate negative effects on the environment. The impact may be similar to what happened in the Mississippi valley early this century. The west east movements between the Parana River valley and south Brazil are of special conservation interest, as a nationally threatened species (in Brazil) is involved (the Chilean Flamingo) as well as duck species targeted for the hunting season in the area.

    Migration and mass change of white-rumped sandpipers in north and south America
    (The Wilson Bulletin, 1991) Harrington, B. A.; Leeuwenberg, F. J.; Lara-Resende, Susana; McNeil, R.; Thomas, B. T.; Grear, J. S.; Martinez, E. F.
    White-rumped Sandpipers {Calidris fuscicollis) migrate between Canadian Arctic breeding areas and “wintering” areas in Patagonia, one of the longest animal migra tions in the Western Hemisphere. Migrant White-rumped Sandpipers employ both long distance, nonstop, and short-distance multiple-stop flights. Southbound migrants fly over the Atlantic ocean from northeastern North America to South America. They then gradually move southeast along northeastern coasts before turning inland in trans-Amazonian travel requiring about one month. Northward migration routes from Patagonia evidently are sim ilar, but are traversed in a rapid series of long nonstop flights. Staging zones are unknown in northern South America during north migration, in the Caribbean basin, or on the Atlantic coastal plain of the U.S. A major staging area is identified in the Great Plains, where birds evidently prepare for a last remaining flight to the Arctic. The migration system of this small sandpiper makes the species vulnerable to loss of strategic migration habitats.
