Tinamus major

NOTES

The habitat suitability model generated in Maxent did not show areas that might be possibly occupied by this species in central and south Amazonia, from where there are very few records.

Distribution of specimens, according to BioMap, suggests a possible area (≈ 16,457 km²) of intergradation between subspecies zuliensis and saturatus from central Cordoba towards the east to northeastern Antioquia. Most specimens in this area have been collected well after the description of both subspecies involved and we believe it is unlikely they are erroneously identified. Similarly, there is one specimen of saturatus inside the northern portion of the range of latifrons, which may denote a greater individual variation in that area for that last subspecies or the possibility of a narrow zone (≈ 1,961 km²), 'possibly wider', of intergradation between both subspecies.

Assuming that the distribution of the species may have filled the complete climatic model generated, west of the Andes its distribution today in remnants of forest is about 126,622 km², which corresponds to a loss of 63 % of its potential original distribution due to deforestation. Nevertheless, accounting for the possible areas that this species occupy in the Amazonia that were not predicted by the model, its distribution today in remnants of forest may be about 609,940 km², which corresponds to a loss of 32 % of its potential suitable habitat in the country due to deforestation.
