A NEST OF CLUB-WINGED MANAKIN MACHAEROPTERUS DELICIOSUS IN NORTHWEST ECUADOR
The Club-winged Manakin Machaeropterus deliciosus is an iconic Pipridae species due to its display behavior, including unique mechanical sounds produced by vibrating modified wing feathers. However, its nesting biology remains poorly known. We present a detailed description of one nest studied in northwest Ecuador in June–July 2021. We provide new information on incubation and maternal care. The nest was a low cup/fork sited on three forks, covered with moss, built 90 cm above the ground and at 50 m distance from a lekking site. The female had high nest attentiveness during the incubation period but decreased markedly in the first nine days post-hatching. The nest produced two juveniles that fledged 16 days after hatching. The breeding biology of this species remains poorly studied, so we recommend further research, including protracted monitoring of nests to understand important aspects of M. deliciosus breeding biology, including incubation period, attendance rates, and nesting success.
期刊介绍:
Ornitología Neotropical welcomes high quality manuscripts concerning ornithological research in the Neotropical region, which includes from Mexico south to Argentina and Chile. Papers on Neotropical species in adjacent areas may be considered at the discretion of the editorial board. While the journal has currently a strong emphasis on natural history, all aspects of avian research are of potential interest. Range extensions and first country records of species are best published in national journals unless the findings have broad implications for the Neotropical region.
