LARA-HERNANDEZ, Felipe A. et al. Ara militaris in central western of Veracruz: recent records. Acta Zool. Mex [online]. 2017, vol.33, n.2, pp.402-406. ISSN 2448-8445.

Based on interviews and field observations, we present information about individuals of Military Macaw (Ara militaris) in the common of Caballo Blanco, in central western of Veracruz. We obtained observations in 2014 and 2015 on a site with cliffs covered by deciduous forest relicts. However, local people said they had seen Military Macaws in this area at least since 2012. It is important to continue working with the people of Caballo Blanco in order to ensure the preservation of this population of Military Macaw. Also, it is necessary to deepen aspects of their ecology on this site, which would be the only one with recent and constant presence of this species in Veracruz.
