The birds of the Urugua-í-Foerster Biological Corridor: current inventory and relevant records

The Urugua-í-Foerster Biological Corridor is located in the northeast of Misiones, Argentina. This corridor is an area of great importance for the conservation and study of birds in the Atlantic Forest. The area presents a mosaic of propierties with different degrees of transformation, used for both traditional agriculture and the application of agroecological models, ecotourism projects and scientific research during the last 15 years. With the objective of generating basic information for future studies and contributing to the knowledge of the bird comunity of the area, this work presents all the species of birds recorded in the period 2002-2017 through the use of two standarizaed sampling techniques: Mist netting and point counts and ad libitum records made by the authors and collaborators. Species with different degrees of threat were recorded, both at national and international level.
