“…Porém, devido a sua ótima capacidade de adaptação a climas diferentes e a mudanças ambientais provocadas pelo homem, as populações de M. monachus têm se expandido consideravelmente em áreas invadidas, como resultado a sua fácil adaptação a diferentes zonas climáticas (ARAMBURÚ; CORBALAN, 2000;NAROSKI;YZURIETA, 2003). Dessa maneira, populações selvagens de M. monachus já foram registradas nos Estados Unidos, Porto Rico, Canadá, Grã-Bretanha, França, Alemanha, Suíça, Áustria, Espanha, Portugal, Itália, Israel, Quênia, Japão e México (ALLEN, 2006;CAMPBELL, 2000;PABLO-LÓPEZ, 2009;ROLL;DAYAN;SIMBERLOFF, 2008;SPANO;TRUFFI, 1986). A espécie foi introduzida em outros continentes pelo comércio de animais de estimação e estabeleceu populações que estão se reproduzindo em algumas dessas áreas, depois de escaparem do cativeiro ou de serem colocadas em liberdade (GISP, 2005).…”

RESUMONo estudo do comportamento animal, o etograma é a base para o entendimento do comportamento de espécies pouco conhecidas, como também para comparar comportamentos de diferentes populações de uma mesma espécie. Este trabalho teve por objetivo descrever os padrões comportamentais de Myiopsitta monachus (Boddaert, 1783) em ambiente natural. Foi observada uma população de indivíduos adultos, em um pequeno fragmento de mata, no município de Manoel Viana/RS -Brasil, divididos em dois períodos de 20 horas cada, no outono e primavera de 2015, totalizando 40 horas. As observações foram realizadas com o auxílio de um binóculo 30 x 50 mm e câmera fotográfica do tipo digital Fujifilm Finepix S4800 zoom 30x e realizadas utilizando as amostragens dos tipos animal focal e snapshot (ou amostragem instantânea). Foram observados e minuciosamente descritos todos os atos comportamentais apresentados e, também, foi elaborado um etograma representando as 15 condutas detectadas, agrupadas em cinco categorias: manutenção, locomoção, nidificação, socialização e vocalização. A partir da análise quantitativa dos comportamentos apresentados por M. monachus, em função da sazonalidade, verificou-se que não houve variação do mesmo entre as duas estações avaliadas (t=0,189, p=0,850). Pode-se verificar uma grande semelhança entre os atos comportamentais de M. monachus com outras espécies de psitacídeos. ABSTRACTConcerning animal behavior studies, ethogram is the fundamental tool for understanding this trait in less studied species; it is also used to compare behaviors from different populations from the same species. The aim of this study was to describe the behavioral patterns of Myiopsitta monachus (Boddaert, 1783) in the natural environment. A population was observed in a forest fragment in Manoel Viana/RS-Brasil municipality throughout two periods of 20h each in two different seasons (autumn and spring in 2015) a total of 40 hours. Observations were performed using the animal focal and snapshot (or instantaneous sampling) methodologies with the aid of binoculars (30 x 55mm) and a digital photographic camera (Fujifilm Finepix S4800 with an optical zoom of 30x). All behavioral acts displayed by those individuals were thoroughly observed and described. An ethogram representing 15 actions detected was made; all actions were grouped into five categories: maintenance, locomotion, nesting, socialization, and vocalization. Concerning seasonality affecting behaviors displayed by M. monachus, it was verified that there was no variation in behavior between the two seasons tested (t=0.189, p=0.850). It is possible to verify a great resemblance of the behavioral acts displayed by M. monachus with the other Psittacidae species.

“…Nevertheless, a larger proportion of accidentally escaped species came from public facilities than from private collections. Animal escapes from zoological parks have been documented world-wide (F abregas et al, 2010), with some escaped species becoming invasive (Jousson et al, 2000;Clergeau & Y esou, 2006;Roll et al, 2008).…”

Aim Invasion processes are probably better understood for birds than for any other taxon, thanks to detailed information available on deliberate introductions performed by Europeans when they colonized other continents. Little is known, however, about current avian introductions in developed countries, including Europe. Using an unprecedented dataset on exotic birds, we assessed the sources and magnitude of recent avian introductions and characterized the transitions between main invasion stages (transport, introduction and establishment) and their temporal evolution. Location Spain and Portugal. Methods We compiled records of species introduced between 1912 and 2012, including information on transport and introduction pathways. We assessed non‐randomness in the phylogenetic relationships and the biogeographic origin of species crossing each invasion stage and evaluated temporal changes in introduction patterns. Results At least 1026 exotic species have been transported to Spain and Portugal (ca. 10% of the world's birds) during the last 100 years. Of these, 377 (37%) have been recorded as introduced into the wild, of which up to 32 (9%) species have established breeding populations. Exotic species entered the invasion pathway mostly through the accidental escape of internationally traded birds, and temporal changes in introduction rates mirrored changes in the number of imported birds. The subsets of taxa successfully passing through the different invasion stages were non‐random with respect to their biogeographic origin and were phylogenetically clustered in several distantly related clades. Main conclusions Our findings show that the magnitude of transport, introduction and establishment of exotic birds is much greater than usually described at a regional level, and support the hypothesis that most species fail to transit the different steps of the invasion process (the so‐called tens rule). The temporal changes in introduction rates are broadly consistent with the recent global rise of accidental introductions associated with the wildlife trade.

“…These differences between terrestrial and freshwater snails could arise from different means of introduction (discussed below). Regions of origin of the non-indigenous snails of Israel differ from those of non-indigenous insects and birds, which have more Paleotropical species (Roll et al 2007a(Roll et al , 2008. There are also more introduced snails of European origin in Israel than in Hawaii.…”

Non-indigenous land and freshwater gastropods in Israel

Few comprehensive works have investigated non-indigenous snails and slugs as a group. We compiled a database of non-indigenous gastropods in Israel to explore how they arrived and spread, characteristics of their introduction, and their biological traits. Fifty-two species of introduced gastropods are known from Israel (of which nine species subsequently went extinct): 19 species of freshwater snails and 33 species of terrestrial gastropods. The majority of these species are found only in human-dominated habitats. Most of those found in natural habitats are aquatic species. Most snails are introduced unintentionally from various parts of the Holoarctic region, reaching Israel as stowaways with horticultural imports and the aquarium trade, but some are brought intentionally to be used as pets or for food. Because the study of this group in Israel is very limited, information regarding their distribution in the country and their effects on other species is incomplete. Though only nine species of non-indigenous snails have been found to date in natural habitats, some of these are very abundant. More information and research is required to enable effective management schemes.
