Mato Grosso state, Brazil, lies in a contact zone between three semi-arid to arid ecoregions: the Chiquitano Dry Forests, the Cerrado and the Pantanal. In spite of being one of the best sampled non-forest sites for birds in Brazil, with thousands of specimens collected, no paper to date has ever compiled the information available for the region. In this paper, we present a checklist of the avifauna of Cáceres, gathering the historical data available together with our own unpublished observations during a series of expeditions to the region. During our fieldwork we recor ded 374 species to the region. The analysis of literature data and museum specimens rises to 446 the number of species ever recorded in the municipality, 362 (81.2%) of which were documented with specimens. This is b y far the highest bird species richness recorded for a non-forest site in Brazil. KEY-WORDS: bird inventory, Cerrado, Chiquitano Dry Forest, Neotropics, Pantanal.

Founded on the 18 Century results from modern bird surveys. An exception to this rule is the municipality of Cáceres, Mato Grosso state, with the name of “Villa Maria do Paraguay”, Cáceres which has been explored by several expeditions devoted was once an enormous municipality that encompassed to natural history studies. Nevertheless, in spite of being extensive areas in western Mato Grosso. Cáceres was subsequently subdivided in other municipalities (Ferreira one of the best sampled sites of central-western Brazil, 1997), until reaching the present day extension of about the extensive historical collections performed in Cáceres Birds from Cáceres, Mato Grosso: the highest species richness ever recorded in a Brazilian non-forest region Leonardo Esteves Lopes, João Batista de Pinho, Aldo Ortiz, Mahal Massavi Evangelista, Luís Fábio Silveira, Fabio Schunck and Pedro Ferreira Develey 24,350 km and almost 88,000 inhabitants (IBGE 2015). on January and water level quickly reaches a peak from Extensive cattle ranching has been the most traditional February to April, slowly decreasing (runoff) from May economic activity in the municipality, with historical to August (Hamilton et al. 1996).

Birds from Cáceres, Mato Grosso: the highest species richness ever recorded in a Brazilian non-forest region Leonardo Esteves Lopes, João Batista de Pinho, Aldo Ortiz, Mahal Massavi Evangelista, Luís Fábio Silveira, Fabio Schunck and Pedro Ferreira Develey APPENDIX II SECONDARY LIST. Species with probable occurrence in the municipality of Cáceres, Mato Grosso, Brazil, but for which we are not confident about the reliability of the recor ds available. Tinamus tao: Reis-de-Magalhães (1994) reports specimens collected in “Fazenda Igara, municipality of Cáceres, high Rio Paraguai”. We were unable to locate those specimens, and failed to trace this locality. Silva & Oniki (1988) recorded the species in Serra das Araras. Given that these localities might not be inside the present day limits of the municipality, we opted to exclude this record from the main list. Dendrocygna bicolor: a migratory and accidental species in the region (Forrester 1993). Coccycua cinerea: an accidental species in the region (Forrester 1993). Vultur gryphus: this species is said to visit the Rio Jauru in the beginning of the dry season (May/June) to feed on cattle carcasses deposited on the beaches of a river island named “Ilha dos Urubus” (Sick 1979), which we were unable to locate. This fact was noticed in 1974 b y Arne Sucksdorff, a Sweden movie director who lived in Mato Grosso, where he produced some nature documentaries. There is no modern documented record of the species for Brazil, even though it is known from bone remains from the beginning of the Holocene of the Lagoa Santa region, Minas Gerais (Alvarenga 1998). The species is currently included in the secondary list of Brazilian bir ds (Piacentini et al. 2015). Buteogallus coronatus: the single record of the species for Cáceres is presented by Stone & Roberts (1934), who said that “no specimens obtained or seen, but said to occur occasionally at Descalvados”. Celeus flavus: an accidental species in the region (Forrester 1993). Campephilus rubricollis: a scarce species in the region (Forrester 1993). Cyanocorax chrysops: a scarce species in the region (Forrester 1993). Leistes militaris: three specimens collected in the Fazenda Descalvados were referred to the species (Schubart et al. 1965, Aguirre & Aldrighi 1987). Nevertheless, we and several other collectors only recorded the congeneric L. superciliaris in Cáceres, with L. militaris being restricted to northern parts of Mato Grosso. We were unable to personally examine the specimens referred to L. militaris and preferred to exclude the species from the main list. Cyanerpes caeruleus: reported to occur in Cáceres by Tubelis & Tomas (2003), based on an undocumented sight record attributed to F. M. D’Horta. Silva & Oniki (1988) recorded the species in Serra das Araras. Sporophila nigrorufa: a doubtful record of this species for Porto Limão was presented elsewhere (Willis & Oniki 1990). Sporophila hypochroma: a migratory species in the region (Forrester 1993). Tangara mexicana: a scarce species in the region (Forrester 1993). Revista Brasileira de Ornitologia, 24(2), 2016 Birds from Cáceres, Mato Grosso: the highest species richness ever recorded in a Brazilian non-forest region Leonardo Esteves Lopes, João Batista de Pinho, Aldo Ortiz, Mahal Massavi Evangelista, Luís Fábio Silveira, Fabio Schunck and Pedro Ferreira Develey APPENDIX III TERTIARY LIST. Species with records published for the municipality of Cáceres, Mato Grosso, Brazil, but whose documental evidence is invalid or occurrence in the area is unlikely. Anhima cornuta: cited by Forrester (1993) as a historical record. Although the species occur near to Cáceres, we failed to find recor ds of the species for the municipality in the sources consulted by the author. Chaetura brachyura: an uncertain record of the species for Porto Limão was presented by Willis & Oniki (1990). Anopetia gounellei: a record for Fazenda Descalvados (Naumburg 1930) is an identification mistake that should be reverted to Phaethornis subochraceus (Meyer de Schauensee 1966). Phaethornis longuemareus: the alleged specimens from Caiçara (von Pelzeln 1868–1870) refer to P. nattereri, an undescribed species at that time (von Berlepsch 1887). Phaethornis hispidus: cited as a historical record by Forrester (1993), there is no record for Cáceres in the references used by this author. Pinto (1978) includes Cáceres in the range of the species, but there is no specimen of P. hispidus from Cáreces in MZUSP and we were unable to trace the source of this record. Vitor Piacentini (pers. com.) suggested that Cáceres was included by mistake in the range of the species by Pinto (1978). Taphrospilus hypostictus: the occurrence of the species in Cáceres (and the only occurrence for Brazil), was first presented by Meyer de Schauensee (1966), and since then reproduced by several authors without criticism. Pacheco (2000) presented convincing evidence that this occurrence is a mistake derived from a typographical error. Amazilia versicolor millerii: an alleged male collected by Ruschi (1955) and deposited in MBML was subsequently reidentified as A. fimbriata nigricauda (Vielliard 1994). The subspecies A. v. milleri is restricted to the north o Rio Amazonas, and A. v. kubtchecki is the subspecies expected to be found in Cáceres (Dickinson & Remsen-Jr. 2013). Hylocharis sapphirina: cited by Forrester (1993) as a historical record, we failed to find recor ds of the species in the sources consulted by this author. Glaucidium minutissimum: the alleged specimen from Caiçara cited elsewhere (von Pelzeln 1868–1870) refers to G. hardyi, an undescribed species at that time (Vielliard 1989). Nystalus maculatus striatipectus: the subspecies that occur in Cáceres in the nomynotypical one. This was a nomenclatural mistake of Tubelis & Tomas (2003). Tolmomyias assimilis: a scarce species in the region accordingly to Forrester (1993). Inezia subflava: an uncertain recor d of this species for Porto Limão was presented by Willis & Oniki (1990). Serpophaga subcristata: an accidental species in the region accordingly to Forrester (1993). Myiozetetes similis: recorded by Forrester (1993), this species seems to be extremely rare in Mato Grosso, where the similar looking M. cayanensis is ubiquitous (Tubelis & Tomas 2003, Antas & Palo-Jr. 2009). Cantorchilus guarayanus: recorded by Forrester (1993), it is probably a misinterpretation of the data presented by Lima (1920) and cited by Naumburg (1930). Lima (1920) commented on some specimens collected in Cáceres and Corumbá, without clearly pointing the exact locality in which each specimen was collected. Naumburg (1930) correctly pointed that the C. guarayanus specimens cited were collected in “Corumbá or São Luiz de Caceres”. Forrester (1993), who probably did not check the original source, inadvertently assumed that these specimens were from Cáceres, when it is known that they came from Corumbá (Pinto 1944). There is a poor quality photograph attributed to the species in Wikiaves (WA 1666170), but that do not allow a safe identification of the species.

Mato Grosso state, Brazil, lies in a contact zone between three semi-arid to arid ecoregions: the Chiquitano Dry Forests, the Cerrado and the Pantanal. In spite of being one of the best sampled non-forest sites for birds in Brazil, with thousands of specimens collected, no paper to date has ever compiled the information available for the region. In this paper, we present a checklist of the avifauna of Cáceres, gathering the historical data available together with our own unpublished observations during a series of expeditions to the region. During our fieldwork we recor ded 374 species to the region. The analysis of literature data and museum specimens rises to 446 the number of species ever recorded in the municipality, 362 (81.2%) of which were documented with specimens. This is b y far the highest bird species richness recorded for a non-forest site in Brazil. KEY-WORDS: bird inventory, Cerrado, Chiquitano Dry Forest, Neotropics, Pantanal.

Founded on the 18 Century results from modern bird surveys. An exception to this rule is the municipality of Cáceres, Mato Grosso state, with the name of “Villa Maria do Paraguay”, Cáceres which has been explored by several expeditions devoted was once an enormous municipality that encompassed to natural history studies. Nevertheless, in spite of being extensive areas in western Mato Grosso. Cáceres was subsequently subdivided in other municipalities (Ferreira one of the best sampled sites of central-western Brazil, 1997), until reaching the present day extension of about the extensive historical collections performed in Cáceres Birds from Cáceres, Mato Grosso: the highest species richness ever recorded in a Brazilian non-forest region Leonardo Esteves Lopes, João Batista de Pinho, Aldo Ortiz, Mahal Massavi Evangelista, Luís Fábio Silveira, Fabio Schunck and Pedro Ferreira Develey 24,350 km and almost 88,000 inhabitants (IBGE 2015). on January and water level quickly reaches a peak from Extensive cattle ranching has been the most traditional February to April, slowly decreasing (runoff) from May economic activity in the municipality, with historical to August (Hamilton et al. 1996).

These three historical localities are not in the municipality of Cáceres, but at their very border, which is demarcated by narrow rivers. Given that past collectors frequently used boats to collect along rivers, frequently crossing them, as well as to the fact that these rivers certainly do not represent a geographical or ecological barrier to birds, we decided to include records obtained in these localities in the main list.

Members of this in Cáceres, we did not include in this paper records expedition travelled through Cáceres territory from obtained in Serra das Araras. We also did not include August to September 1827.

This visited by Natterer, such as the Rio das Flechas, Fazenda because the list presented by those authors apparently Jacobina, city of Cáceres and Barra do Rio Jauru. The included records obtained in other parts of the Pantanal botanist Ludwig Riedel and the painter Adrien Taunay, in or in the adjacent Cerrado, also including some apparent his way to Vila Bela da Santíssima Trindade, also crossed identification mistakes.

Birds from Cáceres, Mato Grosso: the highest species richness ever recorded in a Brazilian non-forest region Leonardo Esteves Lopes, João Batista de Pinho, Aldo Ortiz, Mahal Massavi Evangelista, Luís Fábio Silveira, Fabio Schunck and Pedro Ferreira Develey APPENDIX II SECONDARY LIST. Species with probable occurrence in the municipality of Cáceres, Mato Grosso, Brazil, but for which we are not confident about the reliability of the recor ds available. Tinamus tao: Reis-de-Magalhães (1994) reports specimens collected in “Fazenda Igara, municipality of Cáceres, high Rio Paraguai”. We were unable to locate those specimens, and failed to trace this locality. Silva & Oniki (1988) recorded the species in Serra das Araras. Given that these localities might not be inside the present day limits of the municipality, we opted to exclude this record from the main list. Dendrocygna bicolor: a migratory and accidental species in the region (Forrester 1993). Coccycua cinerea: an accidental species in the region (Forrester 1993). Vultur gryphus: this species is said to visit the Rio Jauru in the beginning of the dry season (May/June) to feed on cattle carcasses deposited on the beaches of a river island named “Ilha dos Urubus” (Sick 1979), which we were unable to locate. This fact was noticed in 1974 b y Arne Sucksdorff, a Sweden movie director who lived in Mato Grosso, where he produced some nature documentaries. There is no modern documented record of the species for Brazil, even though it is known from bone remains from the beginning of the Holocene of the Lagoa Santa region, Minas Gerais (Alvarenga 1998). The species is currently included in the secondary list of Brazilian bir ds (Piacentini et al. 2015). Buteogallus coronatus: the single record of the species for Cáceres is presented by Stone & Roberts (1934), who said that “no specimens obtained or seen, but said to occur occasionally at Descalvados”. Celeus flavus: an accidental species in the region (Forrester 1993). Campephilus rubricollis: a scarce species in the region (Forrester 1993). Cyanocorax chrysops: a scarce species in the region (Forrester 1993). Leistes militaris: three specimens collected in the Fazenda Descalvados were referred to the species (Schubart et al. 1965, Aguirre & Aldrighi 1987). Nevertheless, we and several other collectors only recorded the congeneric L. superciliaris in Cáceres, with L. militaris being restricted to northern parts of Mato Grosso. We were unable to personally examine the specimens referred to L. militaris and preferred to exclude the species from the main list. Cyanerpes caeruleus: reported to occur in Cáceres by Tubelis & Tomas (2003), based on an undocumented sight record attributed to F. M. D’Horta. Silva & Oniki (1988) recorded the species in Serra das Araras. Sporophila nigrorufa: a doubtful record of this species for Porto Limão was presented elsewhere (Willis & Oniki 1990). Sporophila hypochroma: a migratory species in the region (Forrester 1993). Tangara mexicana: a scarce species in the region (Forrester 1993). Revista Brasileira de Ornitologia, 24(2), 2016 Birds from Cáceres, Mato Grosso: the highest species richness ever recorded in a Brazilian non-forest region Leonardo Esteves Lopes, João Batista de Pinho, Aldo Ortiz, Mahal Massavi Evangelista, Luís Fábio Silveira, Fabio Schunck and Pedro Ferreira Develey APPENDIX III TERTIARY LIST. Species with records published for the municipality of Cáceres, Mato Grosso, Brazil, but whose documental evidence is invalid or occurrence in the area is unlikely. Anhima cornuta: cited by Forrester (1993) as a historical record. Although the species occur near to Cáceres, we failed to find recor ds of the species for the municipality in the sources consulted by the author. Chaetura brachyura: an uncertain record of the species for Porto Limão was presented by Willis & Oniki (1990). Anopetia gounellei: a record for Fazenda Descalvados (Naumburg 1930) is an identification mistake that should be reverted to Phaethornis subochraceus (Meyer de Schauensee 1966). Phaethornis longuemareus: the alleged specimens from Caiçara (von Pelzeln 1868–1870) refer to P. nattereri, an undescribed species at that time (von Berlepsch 1887). Phaethornis hispidus: cited as a historical record by Forrester (1993), there is no record for Cáceres in the references used by this author. Pinto (1978) includes Cáceres in the range of the species, but there is no specimen of P. hispidus from Cáreces in MZUSP and we were unable to trace the source of this record. Vitor Piacentini (pers. com.) suggested that Cáceres was included by mistake in the range of the species by Pinto (1978). Taphrospilus hypostictus: the occurrence of the species in Cáceres (and the only occurrence for Brazil), was first presented by Meyer de Schauensee (1966), and since then reproduced by several authors without criticism. Pacheco (2000) presented convincing evidence that this occurrence is a mistake derived from a typographical error. Amazilia versicolor millerii: an alleged male collected by Ruschi (1955) and deposited in MBML was subsequently reidentified as A. fimbriata nigricauda (Vielliard 1994). The subspecies A. v. milleri is restricted to the north o Rio Amazonas, and A. v. kubtchecki is the subspecies expected to be found in Cáceres (Dickinson & Remsen-Jr. 2013). Hylocharis sapphirina: cited by Forrester (1993) as a historical record, we failed to find recor ds of the species in the sources consulted by this author. Glaucidium minutissimum: the alleged specimen from Caiçara cited elsewhere (von Pelzeln 1868–1870) refers to G. hardyi, an undescribed species at that time (Vielliard 1989). Nystalus maculatus striatipectus: the subspecies that occur in Cáceres in the nomynotypical one. This was a nomenclatural mistake of Tubelis & Tomas (2003). Tolmomyias assimilis: a scarce species in the region accordingly to Forrester (1993). Inezia subflava: an uncertain recor d of this species for Porto Limão was presented by Willis & Oniki (1990). Serpophaga subcristata: an accidental species in the region accordingly to Forrester (1993). Myiozetetes similis: recorded by Forrester (1993), this species seems to be extremely rare in Mato Grosso, where the similar looking M. cayanensis is ubiquitous (Tubelis & Tomas 2003, Antas & Palo-Jr. 2009). Cantorchilus guarayanus: recorded by Forrester (1993), it is probably a misinterpretation of the data presented by Lima (1920) and cited by Naumburg (1930). Lima (1920) commented on some specimens collected in Cáceres and Corumbá, without clearly pointing the exact locality in which each specimen was collected. Naumburg (1930) correctly pointed that the C. guarayanus specimens cited were collected in “Corumbá or São Luiz de Caceres”. Forrester (1993), who probably did not check the original source, inadvertently assumed that these specimens were from Cáceres, when it is known that they came from Corumbá (Pinto 1944). There is a poor quality photograph attributed to the species in Wikiaves (WA 1666170), but that do not allow a safe identification of the species. Revista Brasileira de Ornitologia, 24(2), 2016
