Aglaeactis cupripennis

NOTES

To elaborate our model we removed uncertain localities such 'Bogota skins', those localities with no coordinates and all records with coordinates laying down in sites with estimated elevations below 2,700 m and above 3,750 m.

The habitat suitability model generated in Maxent showed some areas suitable in climatic terms for this species in the northern half of the Western Andes, the northern end of the Central Andes and in the most southern portion of the Eastern Andes. Those areas are not supported by any records, however, we decided to leave them in our final potential distribution map since those do not represent extensive areas from where it is not known the species and can be potential areas to look for the species, particularly in the southern Eastern Andes.

Assuming that the distribution of the species may have filled the complete climatic model generated, its distribution today in remnants of forest is about 9,476 km², which corresponds to a loss of 76 % of its potential original distribution due to deforestation. Nonetheless, this species favours edges and therefore possibly deforestation has not negatively affected greatly its populations.
