Lepidoptera: Biology and Taxonomy

We report two new species for Bolivia: Biscutate Swift Streptoprocne biscutata and Buckley's Forest Falcon Micrastur buckleyi, which brings the total number of birds known in Bolivia to 1,449. Additionally, we documented the first individuals of the 'caraguata' morph of Dark-throated Seedeater Sporophila ruficollis, indicating that it spends its non-breeding season in Bolivia, alongside typical S. ruficollis.
