“…Despite the efforts of several authors, major gaps in the understanding of these movements remain, including their dynamics and ecology (Somenzari et al 2018). Elevational (or altitudinal) migration has been reported in Brazil since the 1800s and, principally in the last decades, copious observations have referred to this behaviour in different species, although few standardised studies have been published (Collar et al 1992, Alves 2007, Barçante et al 2017, Schunck et al 2023. These movements are generally attributed to climatic factors and the availability of food resources, some species migrating lower or inland to warmer climes in winter.…”
