Numerous vertebrates, and in particular birds, ingest stones (geo-gastrolites) to favour the breakdown and digestion of food in the muscular stomachs. Between 1993 and 1994 we evaluated the quantity, relative abundance and quality of autochthonous (geo-gastrolites) and allochthonous (pieces of glass) components of the grit in gizzards of black-faced ibis (Theristicus melanopis) inhabiting the pastures of southern Chile. Grit elements were present in 32 out of 48 (66,7%) of all gizzard analysed. A total of 572 particles were recorded from which, 69.1% corresponded to autochthonous elements and 27.8% were allochthonous particles. Both components are similar in shape; however glass contributes considerably more in terms of mass. Gender differences reveal that...

ABSTRACT In forest ecosystems, numerous species of insectivorous birds use certain tree species as feeding and nesting substrates. Between 2009 and 2010, the use of different floristic components as feeding substrate by the Pygarrhichas albogularis King, 1831 was evaluated in a southern Chilean secondary native forest. From a total of 13 trees and bush species, six tree species were used by P. albogularis as a feeding substrate. Tree use was limited to intermediate heights (11-20 m) and, mainly, to the trunk (40% of observations) and secondary branches (26%). Pygarrhichas albogularis showed a disproportionated use of N. dombeyi and an important use of trees with a greater age structure (DBH 81-100 cm). Nothofagus dombeyi presented a significantly greater...
