El comité está conformado por ornitólogos y observadores de aves de reconocida experiencia en el Perú y se rige por sus estatutos. Sus miembros en la actualidad son Daniel Lane, Renzo Zeppilli, Manuel A. Plenge, Huw Lloyd, Barry Walker, Mauricio Ugarte, Thomas Valqui, Thomas S. Schulenberg, Fernando Angulo, Douglas Stotz y John P. O'Neill. José Álvarez fue miembro entre el 2008 y 2011.
En cada caso descrito se incluye al observador, el lugar y la fecha de la observación, se indica si el registro fue publicado y si existió evidencia del registro. Asimismo, se indica el status de la especie para el Perú. Finalmente, se muestra la votación de los miembros dividida en votos a favor (Si), en contra (No) y las abstenciones.
Para reportar especies que son registradas por primera vez en el Perú, se debe escribir al secretario del CRAP (Mauricio Ugarte-Lewis, mugartelewis@yahoo.com) solicitando “Formulario para registro de Observaciones de Aves Raras en Perú”, llenarlo debidamente y enviarlo de regreso. Las especies que tienen prioridad de ser reportadas al CRAP son aquellas señaladas en la “Lista de las Aves de Perú” con una (H) de “hipotéticas” (Plenge 2012), la cual esta disponible en la página web de la Unión de Ornitólogos del Perú: https://sites.google.com/site/boletinunop/checklist o por supuesto, especies que no estén en esta lista.
The Peruvian Bird Records Committee
The role of the Peruvian Bird Records Committee is to maintain an official list of birds for the country. This is a complicated task, especially in a country as diverse as Peru, where there often are considerable gaps in our knowledge of bird distribution. For each species there must be evidence of their existence in the country. In most cases, the evidence is convincing (in the form of a specimen with a good label) and the case is simple. In other cases, the available information is less conclusive.
The Peruvian Bird Records Committee is a committee formed in 2008 with the aim of evaluating the evidence for the occurrence in Peru of potential new species, of voting on the evidence of each record submitted, and for archiving the documentation for each new record, as well as archiving the committee's evaluations of each record.
The committee is conformed by ornithologists and experienced birdwatchers in Peru and is governed by its statutes. Current members of the committee are Daniel Lane, Renzo Zeppilli, Manuel A. Plenge, Huw Lloyd, Barry Walker, Mauricio Ugarte, Thomas Valqui, Thomas S. Schulenberg, Fernando Angulo, Douglas Stotz and John P. O'Neill. José Álvarez was a member between 2008 and 2011.
Included with the published information on each case are the name of the observer, the location and date of the observation, an indication of whether the record previously was published, and the nature of the documentation for the record. It also indicates the status of the species for Peru. Finally, we show the vote of the members divided into positive (Yes), against (No) and abstentions votes.
To report species that are recorded for the first time in Peru, write to the secretary (Mauricio Ugarte-Lewis, mugartelewis@yahoo.com) requesting the "Record Form for Rare Bird Observations in Perú", which should be completed and returned to the secretary. The priority species to be reported to are those identified with an (H) of "hypothetical" in the "List of the Birds of Peru" (Plenge 2012), which is available on the website of the Peruvian Ornithologists Union: https://sites.google.com/site/boletinunop/checklist and of course, species not on that list.
