Thraupidae

Sporophila luctuosa (ND) : occurs in small regions of Venezuela and Colombia.It also occurs in Ecuador, Peru,northern Bolivia and western Brazil ( Grantsau,2010), more precisely on Upper Juruá River/AC according to records from 1992 and 1995 ( Whittaker & Oren, 1999). There is not much information about its movements, which could be seasonal and related to the elevation ( Ridgely & Tudor, 1989; Whittaker & Oren, 1999). This species may exhibit nomadism to a certain degree when searching for grassland seeds ( Jaramillo, 2011g). Museum records show its presence in AC in February (MPEG).
