Bird Seasonal Variation of the Montane Forest in the Quebrada del Portugués, Tucumán, Argentina
The Quebrada del Portugués is an Important Bird Area (IBA) and is part of the Aconquija National Park. The sector studied corresponds to the District of the Montane Forests, which is characterized by its diversity. The aim of the present work was to know the composition and seasonal structure of the assemblage of birds that frequent a sector of that area. The 161 samplings were made at fixed radio points of 30 m and 15 minutes, where all the species seen or heard were recorded, from august to november 2014 and from february to june 2015. 93 species from 31 families and 16 orders were registered. The seasonal richness was 72 species for the dry periodi and 60 for the wet period. The most abundant along the year were Zonotrichia capensis, Turdus chiguanco, Mecocerculus leucoprhrys, Cypseloides rostchildi and Vanellus chilensis. Six species observed are considered Globally Endangered: Vultur gryphus, Cypseloides rosthchildi, Scytalopus superciliaris, Elaenia strepera, Cinclus schulzii and Atlapetes citrinellus. From this first survey of a sector of montane forests, it would give an indication of the biological potential that this protected area has for the entire region added to the fact that it is part of the new Aconquija National Park . It would be important to carry out seasonal, long-term studies in their different environments, which would allow for an adequate management and conservation plan.

La Quebrada del Portugués es un Área de Importancia para la Conservación de las Aves (AICA) y forma parte del Parque Nacional Aconquija. El sector estudiado corresponde al Distrito de los Bosques Montanos de las Yungas. El objetivo del presente trabajo fue conocer la composición y estructura estacional del ensamble de aves que frecuentan un sector de dicha área. Se realizaron 161 muestreos de todas las aves vistas u oídas, en puntos de radio fijo de 30 m y 15 minutos de duración, desde agosto a noviembre de 2014 y desde febrero a junio de 2015. Se encontraron 93 especies de 31 familias y 16 órdenes. La riqueza por estación fue de 72 para el período seco y 60 para el período húmedo. Las especies más abundantes a lo largo del año fueron Zonotrichia capensis, Turdus chiguanco, Mecocerculus leucoprhrys, Cypseloides rostchildi y Vanellus chilensis. Seis especies, consideradas Amenazadas a Nivel Mundial, fueron registradas: Vultur gryphus, Cypseloides rosthchildi, Scytalopus superciliaris, Elaenia strepera, Cinclus schulzii y Atlapetes citrinellus. A partir de este primer relevamiento de un sector de bosques montanos, se daría indicio del potencial biológico que tiene esta zona para toda la región, sumado al hecho de que la misma forma parte del nuevo Parque Nacional Aconquija. Sería importante realizar estudios estacionales, a largo plazo, en sus diferentes ambientes lo que permitiría realizar un adecuado plan de manejo y conservación.
