Crax globulosa

NOTES

To elaborate the habitat suitability model we added during the modelling exercise a record of a sighting from 'isla Miraña, Amazonas' (Renjifo et al., 2002).

The habitat suitability model generated in Maxent showed extensively areas that are suitable in climatic terms for this species in many areas of tropical Colombia. Using the known localities and the literature we limited the final potential distribution map to the areas predicted as marginally suitable, suitable and highly suitable that are south of the rio Caqueta.

Assuming that the distribution of the species may have filled the complete climatic model generated, its potential distribution today in remnants of forest is about 114,627 km2, which corresponds to a loss of 5 % of its potential original distribution due to deforestation. It is important to note that this model is limited due to the very small sample of localities from where this species is known in Colombia (three localities). Some authors limit its distribution in the country to the belts closer to the Caqueta and Putumayo rivers and the Amazon Trapezium (McMullan & Donegan, 2014), while others just to the surrounding areas near each of the three known localities (HBW Alive, 2015). The Colombian Amazon region still remains highly unexplored ornithologically, even more areas such as the southern Amazon region. Thus, it might be that further exploration will show many other localities where this curassow this threatened and rare curassow is present in Colombia within the distribution we have highlighted.
