Laranjeiras, Thiago Orsi; Naka, Luciano Nicol?s; Bechtoldt, Catherine L.; Costa, Thiago Vernaschi Vieira da; Andretti, Christian BorgesWhile many published maps of avian species richness indicate northern Amazonia to be somewhat species-poor, recent surveys reveal that this area actually possesses one of the most species-rich avifaunas in the Neotropical lowlands. Our surveys indicate that at least 520 bird species occur in Viruá National Park (VNP) and adjacent areas, which is located in the Brazilian state of Roraima (northern Amazonia). Her...
