CHAPARRO-HERRERA, Sergio; HERNANDEZ SCHMIDT, Mateo e LOPERA-SALAZAR, Andrea. Notes on the Diet and Habitat of Antioquia Brush-finch Atlapetes blancae (Passerellidae). Actu Biol [online]. 2021, vol.43, n.115, e6. Epub 24-Jan-2022. ISSN 0304-3584. https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.acbi/v43n115a06.
Some of the most relevant and basic data for implementing species-focused conservation measures require nothing more than a methodical record of observations. We present data on the diet and feeding strategies of Atlapetes blancae collected between December 2018 and January 2020 in San Pedro de los Milagros, Santa Rosa de Osos, and Llanos de Cuivá in Yarumal, Antioquia, Colombia. We also present a description of their habitat and comments on possible strategies to implement conservation actions. This information not only contributes to the biological knowledge of the species, but also offers crucial information about the vegetation related to A. blancae so that it can be included in the ecological restoration actions and thus avoid the loss of the habitat of this endemic bird that is in the highest category of threat of extinction.
