Material examined. Tables 1, 2.

IDentificAtion. This species was observed foraging on the Paraguay River during all hydrological periods, although it is classified as migratory. We identified this eagle by the combination of its white head and bottom and the presence of a black band behind the eye, which extends onto the upper part of the body ( Sick 1997).
