Coccyzus erythropthalmus (ND) :breeds in Canada and the USA; overwinters in northwestern and central western South America ( Payne, 1997). In Brazil, it was recorded only in western Acre (AC) in February ( Whittaker & Oren, 1999, MPEG 48047 [AC, 1992, Feb]) and in AP in November ( Xavier & Boss, 2011), which suggests that the country could be a wintering area. However, its occurrence may be incidental and further studies are necessary to classify it as migratory.
