- Abstract
The article offers information on the distribution and seasonal fluctuations of magnificent frigatebirds or Fregata magnificens on the coast of Paraiba, Northeastern Brazil from May 2010 to April 2011. It was confirmed that the said frigatebirds occurred the whole year along the coast, and that the variations reflected local foraging movements. The number of frigatebirds found along the northeastern coast is lower than in the southern and southeastern coasts of Brazil.
