Amazilia tzacatl

NOTES

To elaborate our model we removed uncertain localities such as those with no coordinates and all records with coordinates laying down in sites with estimated elevations above 2,100 m.

The habitat suitability model generated in Maxent showed areas suitable in climatic terms for this species in the southern portions of the Amazonic slope of the Eastern Andes and some areas east of the Andes in Arauca and in the far east Amazon. These areas are not known to be occupied by the species and were excluded from the potential distribution map of this hummingbird.

Assuming that the distribution of the species may have filled the complete climatic model generated, its distribution today in remnants of forest is about 147,487 km², which corresponds to a loss of 67 % of its potential original distribution due to deforestation. Nonetheless, this species favours edges, secondary vegetation and plantations and therefore possibly deforestation has not negatively affected greatly its populations.

A new subspecies was recently described in 1999, A. t. brehmi Weller & Schuchmann, 1999, distributed in southwest Andes of Colombia in the Rio Guiza in Nariño. We do not have any specimens reidentified in BioMap as such and therefore abstained from including it here in our maps.
