ESCOBAR-IBANEZ, Juan Fernando et al. Six new records of endemic birds in Sierra de Quila, Jalisco. Huitzil [online]. 2016, vol.17, n.1, pp.8-17. ISSN 1870-7459.
The natural area Sierra de Quila is located at the western part of the Transmexican Volcanic Belt. It has an extension of 14,168 ha and is legally protected since 1982. It includes six types of vegetation and between 138 and 149 bird species. As result of monthtly surveys on this area, between January 2009 and December 2010, we recorded for the first time the presence of six Mexican endemic bird species (Philortyx fasciatus, Melanerpes chrysogenys, Thryophilus sinaloa, Cardellina rubra, Passerina leclancherii y Peucaea humeralis) and described their ecological distribution. These observations are at least 10 km outside its previously known geographic distribution. The knowledge of the species geographic and ecological distribution at local level is relevant for the conservation and management of their populations and habitats, specially in the natural protected areas.
