Spheniscidae Spheniscus magellanicus (MGT): occurs in Chile, Argentina, Uruguay and Brazil. It departs from its breeding site in Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego in April and migrates at each austral winter to the mouth of the Plata River, Uruguayan coast and southern and southeastern Brazil north to the state of RJ (Sick, 1997; ICMBio, 2010). It reaches Brazil in mid-May and departs from the coast in September (Antas, 1987). It is vagrant in northeastern Brazil and records in this region have been increasing (Martínez, 1992), which suggests that this region is an extension of the wintering area of the species, especially since 2008 (Dantas et al., 2013). Photografic and museum records endorse a major Brazilian occurence of the species in the period between June and December from RS until RJ. Outside this period there are few isolated records to RJ, SC and RS (WikiAves, 2016; MZUSP; MNRJ). : Published as part of Somenzari, Marina, Amaral, Priscilla Prudente do, Cueto, Víctor R., Guaraldo, André de Camargo, Jahn, Alex E., Lima, Diego Mendes, Lima, Pedro Cerqueira, Lugarini, Camile, Machado, Caio Graco, Martinez, Jaime, Nascimento, João Luiz Xavier do, Pacheco, José Fernando, Paludo, Danielle, Prestes, Nêmora Pauletti, Serafini, Patrícia Pereira, Silveira, Luís Fábio, Sousa, Antônio Emanuel Barreto Alves de, Sousa, Nathália Alves de, Souza, Manuella Andrade de, Telino-Júnior, Wallace Rodrigues & Whitney, Bret Myers, 2018, An overview of migratory birds in Brazil, pp. 1-66 in Papéis Avulsos de Zoologia 58 on page 3, DOI: 10.11606/1807-0205/2018.58.03, http://zenodo.org/record/5234679 : {"references": ["Sick, H. 1997.
