Coeligena torquata

NOTES

To elaborate our model we removed uncertain localities such as those localities with no coordinates and all records with coordinates laying down in sites with estimated elevations below 1,500 m and above 3,650 m. Also one record in BioMap from San Pedro de Uraba (Antioquia) and three in DatAves from Leticia (Amazonas), which constitute corrupted data in the database, were deleted.

The habitat suitability model generated in Maxent showed excellent fit to the data, not showing areas suitable in climatic terms for this species off the main Andean ranges.

Assuming that the distribution of the species may have filled the complete climatic model generated, its distribution today in remnants of forest is about 47,320 km², which corresponds to a loss of 63 % of its potential original distribution due to deforestation. Nonetheless, this species favours edges, secondary vegetation and gardens and therefore possibly deforestation has not negatively affected greatly its populations.

Further taxonomic studies needed to clarify relationships between C. torquata, C. conradii, C. eisenmanni and C. inca.

C. conradii usually considered a subspecies of C. torquata.
