Como resultado de observaciones de aves realizadas entre julio de 2002 y diciembre de 2007 en los Humedales de Ite y alrededores, y comparación con registros aislados realizados previamente, presento 49 nuevos registros, de un total de 146 especies de aves registradas. Siete registros previos requieren de confirmación en la zona.

Se describe la presencia de Steatornis caripensis (Humboldt, 1817) en dos sitios ubicados en Putina Punco (14º13'00'' S - 69º09'50'' W; 850 msnm), departamento de Puno. Esta especie utiliza estos sitios solamente para anidar, migrando después de la cría de polluelos. Los nidos se encuentran construidos en las paredes rocosas de las quebradas Tunquimayo y Arco Punco, los cuales están expuestos a la luz del día. Probablemente, este sea el primer registro de anidamiento de esta especie en este tipo de hábitats en el Perú.

The present work reports nine new records of birds species for Ite Wetlands. The species were observed between July of 2008 and June of 2009. These records increase the existent list up to 139 birds species and contribute to justify the importance of this ecosystem for the conservation.

This note describes the existence of a new reproductive colony of Sternula lorata in Pampa El Palo, located in the district and province of Ilo, department of Moquegua. Between August 2016 and March 2017, 8 to 324 S. lorata were recorded and 12 active nests were found. The reproductive area comprises about 600 ha and is characterized by being an open area with sandy-type soil and the presence of shells. This species faces some anthropogenic threats in the area, such as the traffic of motorized vehicles, the passage of local fishermen and the presence of domestic dogs.

We present information on the status of the Andean Flamingo (Phonicoparrus andinus Philippi, 1854), based on a thorough literature review, access to databases, and field observations. We address aspects of the distribution, habitat, population, movements, diet, threats, and conservation status of this rare species. We confirm its presence in thesouthern Andes of Peru with sporadic sightings on the coast. The main habitats are the puna and high Andean salt flats, and in some cases, wetlands located in lower lands that are influenced by the rapid fluctuations of water resources. The population recorded since 1997 seems to be stable in summer; but with eventual fluctuations of thousands of flamingos during winter. Their movements towards Peruvian territory are from their breeding sites in Chile and Bolivia, without any relation to any migratory pattern, seasonality, or the age of the birds ...

In the present contribution, two nationwide surveys of personal protective equipment (PPE) pollution were conducted in Peru and Argentina aiming to provide valuable information regarding the abundance and distribution of PPE in coastal sites. Additionally, PPE items were recovered from the environment and analyzed by Fourier transformed infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with Energy dispersive X-ray (EDX), and X-ray diffraction (XRD), and compared to brand-new PPE in order to investigate the chemical and structural degradation of PPE in the environment. PPE density (PPE m− 2 ) found in both countries were comparable to previous studies. FTIR analysis revealed multiple polymer types comprising common PPE, mainly polypropylene, polyamide, polyethylene terephthalate, and polyester. SEM micrographs showed clear weathering signs, such as cracks, cavities, and r...
