SECO PON, Juan Pablo; HERNANDEZ, Maximiliano; PAZ, Jesica Andrea  and  BERON, María Paula. INTRA-METHOD COMPARISON FOR TRAPPING COOTS FULICA SP. IN URBAN LAGOONS OF SOU-THEAST BUENOS AIRES. Hornero [online]. 2022, vol.37, n.1, pp.8-8. ISSN 0073-3407.

In this study, we evaluate the intramethod efficiency for the capture of three species of coots in urban lagoons of the General Pueyrredón district, Argentina, during the reproductive period. The trapping technique used was a noose-line trap, each of them consisted of a line with green and white nooses. A total of 32 coots, 19 with a green noose-line trap and 13 with a white noose-line trap were caught. This study is the first that evaluates the intra-method capture efficiency applying the noose-line trap as a coot capture technique.

Keywords : Buenos Aires Province; capture methods; coastal lagoons; coots; General Pueyrredón; noose-line trap.
