Interesting distributional records of Amazonian birds from Pastaza, Ecuador

Abstract:

Records of 28 species that extend our knowledge of their status and distribution in the eastern lowlands of Ecuador are presented, among them the fourth record of Pale-eyed Blackbird Agelastkus xanthophthalmus in the country, only the ninth Ecuadorian locality for Grey-bellied Hawk Accipiter poliogaster, and the first record for prov. Pastaza of Long-billed Starthroat Heliomaster longirostris. Many of the other species reported on here might prove to be comparatively widely distributed in Ecuador's Amazonian lowlands, but to date relatively little field work has been conducted in this region away from the main Napo drainage. © British Ornithologists' Club 2011.
