For over 130 years, the Atlantic Forest antwren Rhopias gularis (Spix, 1825) remained known in the Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Sul from 2 undated specimens collected by Hermann von Ihering at Taquara in the early 1880s. We located 1 couple plus 2 lone females along the border with Santa Catarina in the Josafaz stream valley, municipality of Mampituba, in October 2017 and January 2018. These records confirm the present-day occurrence of R. gularis in Rio Grande do Sul and establish a new southern limit of its distribution. We briefly discuss the validity of Ihering’s record and the historical occurrence of the species at Taquara.

We report the rediscovery of the hummingbird Heliodoxa rubricauda (Boddaert, 1783) in the Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Sul after nearly 130 years without confirmed records. We captured 3 males and 1 female, and found 2 other birds (including an immature) at 3 sites in the municipalities of São Francisco de Paula and Cambará do Sul, in the northeast of the state. All records were at the top of the Southern Brazilian Plateau escarpment, at altitudes of about 900 m and near the southern limit of the Atlantic Forest.

Resumo. Os Histeridae são besouros predadores, principalmente de larvas de Diptera, que apresentam morfologia diversificada. Ainda há pouca informação sobre os Histerídeos ocorrentes na região Neotropical e no Brasil, com carência principalmente de dados regionais. O presente estudo visa preencher esta lacuna de conhecimento por meio de elaboração uma lista de espécies para a região sul do Brasil. Os dados foram levantados por meio de revisão bibliográfica e complementados com o estudo de exemplares depositados nas principais Coleções Biológica do sul do Brasil. São registrados: 66 gêneros e 157 espécies de Histeridae para a Região sul do país, alocados em 11 tribos e sete subfamílias. Essa é a lista regional mais completa de espécies de Histeridae para o Brasil e a primeira para o sul do país.Checklist of Histeridae from southern Brazil (Insecta: Coleoptera: Staphyliniformia) Abstract. The histerid beetles are predator, mainly larvae Diptera, that present diversified morphology. There is little information about the histerid beetles from Neotropical and Brazil, with a large lack mainly about regional data. Our goal was to present a checklist of Histeridae from southern Brazil in order to fill this gap of knowledge. The data were collected through a bibliographic review and supplemented with the study of specimens deposited in the main Biological Collections from Southern Brazil. There are 66 genera and 157 species of Histeridae for the southern Brazil, allocated in 11 tribes and seven subfamilies. Were recorded: 68 species to State of Paraná, 106 species to State of Santa Catarina and 25 species to State of Rio Grande do Sul. This is the most complete regional checklist of Histeridae species from Brazil and the first to southern of the country.

First Time

Rio Grande do Sul (RS) is the southernmost state in Brazil and includes areas within the Pampa and Atlantic Forest biomes. The semiaquatic bugs (Hemiptera, Heteroptera, Gerromorpha) from RS are poorly known, with only 14 previously recorded species. We carried out two expeditions in this state, in 2002 and 2019, across 19 municipalities. Here, we provide new records for 19 species, of which 13 are recorded for the first time from the state, five have their distributions expanded, and one is recorded again from a same locality previously reported in the literature. Furthermore, 13 species were collected for the first time in the Pampa biome and one in the Atlantic Forest.

Settlement Systems

At the beginning of the Christian era, potterymaking groups started occupying the southern region of Brazil (the states of Rio Grande do Sul, Santa Catarina and Paraná: FIGURE 1), their origins closely related to former inhabitants, mainly hunters and gatherers. Two major groups are recognized, from the hundreds of identified sites. Vestiges of the first, dispersed in settlements in the southernmost area and in the low savanna landscape, show that settlers of mounds — cerritos — were nomadic, their economy based on hunting, fishing and gathering. In the second, dispersed in the plateau and along adjacent coastal plains, settlers depended on gathering; at least in a few areas and in more recent periods they were sedentary, with the rudiments of more complex social and political patterns. The two settlement systems are in very different environmental, cultural and temporal contexts. Current research takes a normative view of culture, in which pottery has a place of honour and is classified by archaeological ‘traditions’ and ‘phases’. Yet both groups present pottery industries rather matched in time and space, obscuring evidence of internal differentiation or cultural change processes.
