Summary

The central upwelling zone of the Humboldt current system extends from 13-24°S, from Cerro Azul in Peru down to Mejillones in Chile. The IMMA encompasses waters from the South American coast to the edge of the South Pacific trench, which reaches depths of 5000-6000m. It includes a total of seventeen marine mammal species that either breed and/or forage in the area. This area includes breeding and foraging grounds for marine otters and two pinniped species as well as foraging grounds for eight odontocetes and four mysticetes. Many of these represent distinct subspecies, subpopulations, or populations that are designated as ‘Threatened’ under national legislation in Peru and Chile as well as globally on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. These threatened species include Chile-Peru Southern right whales (Endangered – EN): Peruvian dusky dolphins (Vulnerable – VU); Peruvian fur seals (Vulnerable – VU) and Burmeister’s porpoises (Near Threatened- NT). This area hosts the entire subpopulation of Peruvian fur seals and a large proportion of the marine otters in the region.

Description of Qualifying Criteria

Criterion A – Species or Population Vulnerability

The Peruvian/Chilean subpopulation of South American fur seals (Arctocephalus australis) is relatively small, with ~3,700 reproductively mature individuals counted in the 2018-19 breeding season (Aguilar-Arakaki, 2021, Oliva et al., 2020). It has likely been reduced by at least two-thirds from its historical abundance and is listed as Vulnerable (VU) on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species (Cárdenas-Alayza & Olivera, 2016) and as Endangered in Peruvian legislation (D.S. 014-2014-MINAGRI). The 1982-1983 El Niño resulted in the loss of the entire pup cohort, and the 1997-1998 El Niño caused the population to decline by at least 66% in two years (Cárdenas-Alayza & Olivera, 2016). Currently >50% of the entire population is found at only two sites in Peru, Punta San Juan and Punta Coles (Aguilar-Arakaki, 2021). The combination of competition for prey with fisheries (Majluf et al., 2002), El Niño, and other warming events (e.g., marine heat waves) have been increasing in frequency and duration (Pietri et al., 2021) limiting access to prey and hindering population growth (Cárdenas-Alayza et al. 2021). Marine otters (Lontra felina) are listed as Endangered (EN) on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species (Valqui and Rheingantz, 2021). They are nationally listed as Endangered in Peru (D.S. 014-2014-MINAGRI) and Endangered according to the Chilean Regulation for the classification of the wild species in conservation categories (https://clasificacionespecies.mma.gob.cl). Historical decline is attributed to the pelt trade, as well as multiple current threats linked to habitat destruction and degradation. This includes competition for prey, incidental captures in fisheries and poaching (Valqui & Rheingantz, 2021), which in turn has increased population fragmentation (Medina-Vogel et al., 2008; Vianna et al., 2010). This IMMA fulfils the A1a (>0.5% of global population) for KBA criteria based on the number of mature breeding individuals in the population of the endangered marine otters in the area (Ortiz-Alvarez et al., 2021; Valqui & Rheingantz, 2021).

The number of mature individual southern right whales (Eubalaena australis) off the coasts of Chile and Peru is estimated to be fewer than 50 and the same Chile-Peru subpopulation is listed as Critically Endangered (CR) on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species (Cooke, 2018), and is listed as Endangered under the Chilean Regulation for the classification of the wild species in conservation categories (https://clasificacionespecies.mma.gob.cl). Regarding the Peruvian subspecies of dusky dolphin (Lagenorhynchus obscurus posidoni), and the given the overlap with some of the most intensively fished oceans in the world and that hunting and bycatch mortality rates are at least several thousand individuals per year, it is extremely likely that this subspecies is declining in abundance (Van Waerebeek et al., 1994, 1997, 1999). While there is no information on the abundance or estimates for this subspecies, it is thought that interactions with fisheries, mostly from bycatch and direct take for decades have seriously depleted this subpopulation particularly off Peru (Read et al., 1988, Van Waerebeek, 1994, Van Waerebeek et al., 1997, Mangel et al., 2010). The subspecies is listed as Vulnerable (VU) on the IUCN Red List because a 30% decline in abundance is inferred and suspected over a time period spanning both the past and the projected future, where threats (bycatch and hunting) have not ceased (Mangel & Alfaro-Shigueto, 2019).

Criterion B: Distribution and Abundance

Sub-criterion B1: Small and Resident Populations

Coastal surveys in Peru indicate that 60% of Peru’s marine otter population is presently concentrated on the southern coast between latitudes 14-18 (Ortiz-Alvarez et al., 2021). In Chile, marine otters have been reported in the coast of Iquique (Pavez et al., 2022) and Mejillones (Jorge Acevedo, unpublished data). The home range described for this species is less than 4.5 km. As such, the population is resident in the IMMA year-round, and affected by human use of the marine littoral zone (Medina et al., 2007).

Sub-criterion B2: Aggregations

This area contains a concentration numbering >90% of Peru’s population of South American fur seals, estimated at 8,473.5 ± 861.9 (Aguilar-Arakaki, 2021) and >70% of the South American sea lion breeding population with an ca. 82,930 and 21,616 pup production in 2018 (IMARPE, 2019). Tagged fur seals from Punta San Juan (15°22’S) have been seen as far south as Iquique (20°13’S) and Antofagasta (23°39’S) in northern Chile in 1998 (Cárdenas-Alayza, 2012). The number of breeding colonies in Arica-Parinacota, Tarapacá and Antofagasta regions has increased from 7 to 33 for South American sea lions, and from 1 to 5 for Peruvian fur seals between 1996 and 2019 (Oliva et al., 2020). Further more this IMMA likely fulfils the B2 criteria (>1% of co-occurring restricted species) for the selection of Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) based on the number of mature individuals of both Peruvian fur seals and South American sea lions in the area (Aguilar-Arakaki, 2021; IMARPE, 2019; Oliva, 2020). Finally, an important aggregation of Burmeister’s porpoise has been documented in the region of Mejillones (Illanes and Garcia-Cegarra, 2022) with an estimated abundance of this species of 76,17 porpoises (CV = 58%) and with a density of 0.45 ind/km2 (Illanes and Garcia-Cegarra 2022).

Criterion C: Key Life Cycle Activities

Sub-criterion C1: Reproductive Areas

Sightings of mother-calf pairs of Southern right whales have been documented  in the bays along the south coast of Peru between 1987 and 2007 (Santillán et al., 2004; Van Waerebeek et al., 1992; 1998; 2008). According  to Van Waerebeek et al., (2008), compiled sightings provide evidence that this is an endangered native species to the South Pacific that is slowly recovering along its Chile-Peru range after the dramatic effects of whaling activities during the 19th century.

Sub-criterion C2: Feeding Areas

Peruvian dusky dolphins occur regularly in this region, and their foraging habitat is linked to the 200m isobath even during El Niño events (Llapapasca et al., 2018). Potential feeding is likely centred around upwelling zones in neritic waters (Van Waerebeek, 1997), overlapping with reported bycatch incidents and fisheries interactions (Van Waerebeek, 1992). Data from cruises demonstrate that dusky dolphins overlap mainly with pelagic-neritic prey species (e.g. Peruvian anchovy, silverside and mackerels) (Llapapasca et al., 2018; Hamilton et al., 2008), which concurs with previous studies based on stomach contents, which showed that prey composition was predominated by anchovies (Engraulis spp.) (ca. 50%), slimtail lanternfish (Lampanyctus parvicauda)(ca. 25%), Inca scad Trachurus murphyi (ca 17.1%), and mote sculpin Normanichthys crockeri (ca 76.0%) (Garcia-Godos et al., 2007).

Peruvian fur seals are nocturnal foragers that typically feed 200-300km from shore (Cárdenas-Alayza, 2021) and dive to depths of 11-30m (Trillmich et al., 1986). In the north of Chile, pelagic foraging was reported by juvenile male South American sea lions, with average dive depths of 30m (Hückstädt et al. 2014, 2016) ranging from 80 to 178 km from shore (Cardenas-Alayza, 2021). In these areas, the combination of a narrow continental shelf (80km from shore) and shallow oxycline (50-80m) compress the habitat for potential prey, forcing them to the surface and allowing shallow foraging by predators (Bertrand et al., 2010).

Criterion D: Special Attributes

Sub-criterion D1: Distinctiveness

Berta and Churchill (2012) strongly suggest that the Peruvian and northern Chilean fur seals represent an unnamed subspecies. Following this, Oliveira and Brownell (2014) and the IUCN Species Survival Committee Pinniped Specialists Group recognizes the Peru/north of Chile fur seal as an unnamed subspecies with the Peruvian Fur Seal as its English common name (Cárdenas-Alayza & Oliveira 2016). In addition, a distinct genetic haplotype of dusky dolphins was reported for the Peru population (Cassens et al., 2004). Although most of the dusky dolphin populations are stable and not subject to anthropogenic impacts, the Peru Chilean subspecies L. o. posidonia has been severely depleted due to a combination of natural and anthropogenic impacts affecting its genetic diversity (Mangel and Alfaro-Shigueto, 2019).

Sub-criterion D2: Diversity

The area of the central Humboldt current upwelling system hosts a diversity of over 17 marine mammals, many of which compromise distinct subspecies, subpopulations or populations for this area, including Peruvian dusky dolphins (Cassens et al., 2004), the Peruvian/Chilean subpopulation of South American fur seals (Cárdenas-Alayza and Oliveira, 2016), The Chile-Peru Subpopulation of southern right whales (Cooke, 2018) and Burmeister’s porpoises (Rosa et al., 2005). This area includes breeding grounds for marine otters, and two pinniped species, as well as foraging grounds 8 odontocetes (Llapapasca et al., 2018; Llapapasca and Quiñones, 2021; Santillán, 2021; Testino et al., 2019) and three mysticetes (Santillán, 2021). A few additional species are present in the area but there occurrence is unpredictable, such as for pilot whales (Globicephala sp.), Risso’s dolphins (Grampus griseus), dusky dolphins, common bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) and common dolphins (Delphinus delphis), sperm whales (Physeter macrocephalus), and sei whales (Balaenoptera borealis) (Bedriñana-Romano et al., 2022).
