This selects for divergence in traits involved in species identification among co-occurring species, resulting from character displacement.

    Threatened Birds of the Americas

    TANAGER-FINCH Oreothraupis arremonops V/R10 This cloud-forest undergrowth species has a poorly known and patchy distribution in the West Andes of Colombia and in north-western Ecuador, with few recent records. However, large tracts of apparently suitable habitat remain in protected areas, the reason for its apparent rarity being essentially unknown. DISTRIBUTION The Tanager-finch (see Remarks 1) is known from just a few apparently disjunct areas on the West Andes in Antioquia, Valle, Cauca and Nariño departments, Colombia, and also from Imbabura and Pichincha provinces, north-western Ecuador, where localities (coordinates from Paynter and Traylor 1977, 1981) are as follows: Colombia (Antioquia) Hacienda Potreros (c.6°39’N 76°09’W; on the western slope of the West Andes, south-west of Frontino), where a male (in USNM) was taken at 1,980 m in June 1950 (also Carriker 1959); (Valle) in the region of Alto Anchicayá (c.3°37’N 76°53’W), where the species has fairly recently been recorded (Orejuela 1983); (Cauca) in the vicinity of Cerro Munchique (2°32’N 76°57’W), where the bird is regularly found on the western slope (Hilty and Brown 1986), specific localities including: La Costa (untraced, but c.10 km north of Cerro Munchique), where a female (in ANSP) was taken at 1,830 m in March 1938 (also Meyer de Schauensee 1948-1952), Cocal (2°31’N 77°00’W; north-west of Cerro Munchique), where two specimens were collected at 1,830 m (Chapman 1917a), El Tambo (2°25’N 76°49’W; on the east slope of the West Andes), whence come specimens taken at 1,370

Portachuelo Pass is an important route for migratory birds between northern South America and the Southern Cone. During 11 months of sampling between 2010 and 2012, we captured 1,460 birds belonging to 125 identified species, 29 families, and 9 orders. The families with the highest relative abundance and species richness were Trochilidae and Thraupidae and the most common species were the Violet-chested Hummingbird (Sternoclyta cyanopectus), Olive-striped Flycatcher (Mionectes olivaceus), Plain-brown Woodcreeper (Dendrocincla fuliginosa), Orange-bellied Euphonia (Euphonia xanthogaster), Violet-fronted Brilliant (Heliodoxa leadbeateri), Vaux’s Swift (Chaetura vauxi), Red-eared Parakeet (Pyrrhura hoematotis), Golden-tailed Sapphire (Chrysuronia oenone), Black-hooded Thrush (Turdus olivater), and Gray-rumped Swift (Chaetura cinereiventris). These species represented 52.4% of total captures and 8.0% of identified species. We captured 5 endemic species and 8 migratory species. The months of greatest relative abundance and species richness were June and July 2010 and January 2011. Birds captured belonged to the following feeding guilds: insectivorous, nectarivorous-insectivorous, frugivorous, frugivorous-insectivorous, granivorous, frugivorous-folivorous, omnivorous, carnivorous, and frugivorous-graniv- orous.

It’s always fun and offers so many memorable birds. Ecuador is a wonderful country to visit with beautiful landscapes, rich culture, and many friendly people that you will meet along the way. Some of the highlights picked by the group were Andean Condor, White-throated Screech-Owl, Giant Antpitta, Jameson’s Snipe, Giant Hummingbird, Black-tipped Cotinga, Sword-billed Hummingbird, Club-winged Manakin, Lyre-tailed Nightjar, Lanceolated Monklet, Flame-faced Tanager, Toucan Barbet, Violet-tailed Sylph, Undulated Antpitta, Andean Gull, Blue-black Grassquit, and the attractive Blue-winged Mountain-Tanager.

CoP13)] SELECTION OF SPECIES FOR TRADE REVIEWS FOLLOWING COP16 1. This document has been prepared by the Secretariat. 2. In Resolution Conf. 12.8 (Rev. CoP13) on Review of Significant Trade in specimens of Appendix-II species, the Conference of the Parties: DIRECTS the Animals and Plants Committees, in cooperation with the Secretariat and experts, and in consultation with range States, to review the biological, trade and other relevant information on Appendix-II species subject to significant levels of trade, to identify problems and solutions concerning the implementation of Article IV, paragraphs 2 (a), 3 and 6 (a)... 3. In accordance with paragraph a) of that Resolution under the section Regarding conduct of the Review of Significant Trade, the Secretariat requested UNEP-WCMC to produce a summary from the CITES Trade Database of annual report statistics showing the recorded net level of exports for Appendix-II species over the five most recent years.

    Dated Phylogenetic and Biogeographic Inference of Migratory Behavior in Bee Hummingbirds Yuyini Licona-Vera and Juan Francisco Ornelas*

    Licona-Vera and Ornelas BMC Evolutionary Biology (2017) 17:126 DOI 10.1186/s12862-017-0980-5 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access The conquering of North America: dated phylogenetic and biogeographic inference of migratory behavior in bee hummingbirds Yuyini Licona-Vera and Juan Francisco Ornelas* Abstract Background: Geographical and temporal patterns of diversification in bee hummingbirds (Mellisugini) were assessed with respect to the evolution of migration, critical for colonization of North America. We generated a dated multilocus phylogeny of the Mellisugini based on a dense sampling using Bayesian inference, maximum- likelihood and maximum parsimony methods, and reconstructed the ancestral states of distributional areas in a Bayesian framework and migratory behavior using maximum parsimony, maximum-likelihood and re-rooting methods. Results: All phylogenetic analyses confirmed monophyly of the Mellisugini and the inclusion of Atthis, Calothorax, Doricha, Eulidia, Mellisuga, Microstilbon, Myrmia, Tilmatura,andThaumastura. Mellisugini consists of two clades: (1) South American species (including Tilmatura dupontii), and (2) species distributed in North and Central America and the Caribbean islands. The second clade consists of four subclades: Mexican (Calothorax, Doricha)and Caribbean (Archilochus, Calliphlox, Mellisuga)sheartails,Calypte,andSelasphorus (incl. Atthis). Coalescent-based dating places the origin of the Mellisugini in the mid-to-late Miocene, with crown ages of most subclades in the early Pliocene, and subsequent species splits in the Pleistocene. Bee hummingbirds reached western North America by the end of the Miocene and the ancestral mellisuginid (bee hummingbirds) was reconstructed as sedentary, with four independent gains of migratory behavior during the evolution of the Mellisugini. Conclusions: Early colonization of North America and subsequent evolution of migration best explained biogeographic and diversification patterns within the Mellisugini.

    Phylogenetic Patterns in the Trochilidae

    The Auk 115(1):105-118, 1998 PHYLOGENETIC PATTERNS IN THE TROCHILIDAE JOHN A. GERWIN•'2 AND ROBERTM. ZINK L3 •Museumof NaturalScience and Department of Zoologyand Physiology, LouisianaState University, Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70803, USA ABSTRACT.--Althoughmany aspectsof hummingbirdbiology have been studied, few re- centanalyses of higher-levelsystematic relationships exist. Based on morphology, it hasbeen hypothesizedthat the Trochilidaeincludes six majorclades. We used starch-gel electropho- resisto constructand testphylogenetic hypotheses for representativesof the six clades,us- ing two speciesof swifts(Apodidae) as outgroups. Of 45 loci scored,38 werepolymorphic. The averageNei's geneticdistance (D) among14 hummingbirdtaxa was 0.625;D averaged 1.61between the swiftsand hummingbirds.These distances are large,and are consistent with othernonpasserine groups, suggesting that hummingbird taxa are relativelyold. Phy- logeneticanalyses generally were consistentwith the hypothesisthat hermitsare a sister groupto all othertrochilines. Within the Trochilinae, two broad groups are recognized, here calledtrochiline-A and B, whichcorrespond to the morphologicallydetermined "primitive" and"advanced" trochiline groups of Zusiand Bentz (1982). Androdon aequatorialis is genet- ically distinctbut generallyaligns with the trochiline-Agroup. Within the trochiline-B group,four radiationshypothesized by Zusi (pers.comm.), here called Bee, Amazilia ("Em- eralds"),Andean, and High Andean,were corroboratedby our analyses.Our distanceanal- ysissuggests a phylogeneticpattern
