First record of the Capped Heron (Pilherodius pileatus) in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil

Abstract

The Capped Heron (Pilherodius pileatus) is a solitary Neotropical bird that inhabits rivers and lakes bordered by forest. On 26 September 2025, we observed an adult individual in a wetland area within Turvo State Park, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. The species had not previously been reported from the state.
