Understanding the distribution of a threatened bird at multiple levels: A hierarchical analysis of the ecological niche of the Santa Marta Bush-Tyrant (Myiotheretes pernix)
Abstract:Artículo de publicación ISIAn understanding of the ecological factors determining bird species’ distributions is essential for making informed
conservation decisions. These data are especially important for range-restricted species, such as the Santa Marta Bush-
Tyrant (Myiotheretes pernix), a threatened endemic of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta (SNSM) in Colombia. Here we
adopt a novel hierarchical analysis to describe the bush-tyrant’s ecological niche and infer the regional and local
determinants of i… Show more
