SCHNEIDER, Larissa; SERBENA, Antonio Luis  e  GUEDES, Neiva Maria Robaldo. Behavioral categories of hyacinth macaws (Anodorhynchus hyacinthinus) during the reproductive period, at South Pantanal, Brazil. Rev. etol. [online]. 2006, vol.8, n.2, pp. 71-80. ISSN 1517-2805.

The hyacinth macaw (Anodorhynchus hyacinthinus), abundant in Brazil at the beginning of the 19th century, is now endangered throughout its range. As a contribution to the knowledge of this species, we give a description of its species-typical behaviors, categorized as maintenance, locomotion, feeding, reproduction, social and vigilance categories, based on field observations with five pairs of birds in South Pantanal, Brazil. Similarities and differences with the repertoires of other psitacid species are discussed.
