Registros notables del Flamenco Chileno (<i>Phoenicopterus chilensis</i>) en el departamento de Santa Cruz, Bolivia

Abstract

In Bolivia, the Chilean Flamingo, Tokoko or Parina (Phoenicopterus chilensis), is one of the most common and widely distributed flamingos. It is present in the departments of La Paz, Oruro, Potosí, Tarija and Cochabamba. In 2016 and 2022, we found three individuals in Laguna Pirirenda and Laguna Tatarenda, located in the Chaco Serrano ecoregion of the department of Santa Cruz. We found one adult and couple (male and female) in each lagoon, respectively. These are new reports for the species in the department of Santa Cruz and the Chaco Serrano ecoregion; thus, these observations expand this species distribution in the country.
