BLANCAS-CALVA, Epifanio e BLANCAS-HERNANDEZ, Jean Cristian. Presence of the Eurasian Collared-Dove (Streptopelia decaocto) in Lima city, Peru. Huitzil [online]. 2016, vol.17, n.1, pp.111-114. ISSN 1870-7459.
We recorded the Eurasian Collared-Dove (Streptopelia decaocto) in Lima city, Peru. It is an exotic species to the American continent. Although it is of Eurasian origin, human activity has favoured its spread worldwide. In 1974 it was introduced as ornamental bird to the Bahamas and the Lesser Antilles and was dispersed throughout of the American continent. The Eurasian Collared-Dove has a high reproductive rate with up to three clutches per year and patterns of aggressive behaviour that have allowed it a significant population increase and a successful dispersion.
