Conducting rigorous avian inventories: Amazonian case studies and a roadmap for improvement

Site-based avian inventories are ubiquitous in Neotropical ornithology but are prone to error if fieldworkers are not familiar with the regional species pool, particularly in species-rich regions such as the Amazon basin. Here, we review recent species lists from the Brazilian Amazon in both the pri...

Inventários aviários baseados em locais são onipresentes na ornitologia neotropical, mas são propensos a erros se os pesquisadores de campo não estiverem familiarizados com o conjunto regional de espécies, particularmente em regiões ricas em espécies, como a bacia amazônica. Aqui, revisamos espécies recentes listas da Amazônia brasileira tanto na literatura ornitológica primária quanto em planos de manejo de áreas protegidas para avaliar o nível de erros putativos em termos de espécies de aves registradas em inventários baseados em sítios que são biogeograficamente improváveis ​​na região amostrada. Encontramos erros frequentes em todos os tipos de inventário. A falta de reconhecimento de modificações taxonômicas recentes em uma taxonomia citada foi um erro comum em muitos inventários. Descrevemos uma série de etapas a seguir para melhorar a utilidade e a precisão Inventários aviários, e enfatizam a importância de obter e arquivar material documental, que deve ser incluído nas publicações como vales digitais para facilitar a revisão por pares detalhada. 2018-11-22T12:49:20Z 2018-11-05 2018-11-22T12:49:20Z 2014-03-02 Artigo de Periódico http://repositorio.museu-goeldi.br/handle/mgoeldi/1320 eng Revista Brasileira de Ornitologia Acesso Aberto application/pdf Museu Paraense Emilio Goeldi Brasil MPEG
