Abstract: We provide new records of three globally threatened species of bird belonging to the family Cotingidae: Procnias nudicollis (Vieillot, 1817), Xipholena atropurpurea (Wied, 1820), and Cotinga maculata (Statius Müller, 1776). These findings in non-protected areas of the Brazilian Atlantic Forest and, for C. maculata, at higher altitudes than previously reported, improve our understanding of the distribution of these threatened species and can aid in conservation efforts to protect them.

First record of Swallow-tailed Cotinga, Phibalura flavirostris Vieillot, 1816 (Aves, Cotingidae) in Campo Grande, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil https://checklist.pensoft.net/article/26072/ Check List 14(2): 495-497

DOI: 10.15560/14.2.495

Authors: Allan Corral, Claudía Liz Rodrigues Silva, Cristiano Marcelo Espinola Carvalho, Kwok Chiu Cheung, Luciana Mendes Valério

Abstract: The Swallow-tailed Cotinga, Phibalura flavirostris, is a rare Neotropical bird. Its geographic distribution in Brazil is limited to the country’s south and south-east regions and a small area in the center of the state of Goiás. However, an adult individual was recorded in a fragment of Cerrado in the municipality of Campo Grande, in central Mato Grosso do Sul, indicating an expansion in the distribution of the species in Brazil.

Pyroderus scutatus masoni (Shaw, 1792) (Aves, Cotingidae): a subspecies of Red-ruffed Fruitcrow newly confirmed for Ecuador https://checklist.pensoft.net/article/21311/ Check List 14(1): 281-284

DOI: 10.15560/14.1.281

Authors: Leonardo Ordóñez-Delgado, Santiago Erazo, Ivonne González, Diego Armijos-Ojeda, Daniel Rosado

Abstract: We present the first records of the Red-ruffed Fruitcrow, Pyroderus scutatus (Shaw, 1792), in the Cordillera del Cóndor of Ecuador and the first confirmed records of this species in the east of this country. These new records were made in October 2016 and February and September 2017 in the Blanco river basin in southeastern Ecuador. This place is 200 km and over 500 km from the nearest occurrences of this species in Peru and Ecuador, respectively. We can now confirm the presence of the subspecies P. s. masoni (Ridgway, 1886) in Ecuador.
