Aurkibidea:
  • <p><i>Actitis macularius</i> (MGT):</p><p>widely distributed in North America, where it nests in open areas close to water bodies and reservoirs.It overwinters in southern USA, Central America and southern South America as far as northern Chile and Argentina (van Gils <i>et al.,</i> 2016a). It was recorded in September and November for RR and from July to May for Manaus and Marchantaria Island/AM (Stotz <i>et al.,</i> 1992), as well as for RS (Belton, 1984). It visits the Central Plateau from August to October (Negret, 1988). There are recent photographic records for all Brazilian states between September and May. Scarce records between June and August (WikiAves, 2016) are probably of juveniles, since some one-year-old shorebirds mostly stay on wintering grounds through the first summer (Cristol <i>et al.,</i> 1999).</p>
