Description
Summary:We provide new records of three globally threatened species of bird belonging to the family Cotingidae: Procnias nudicollis (Vieillot, 1817), Xipholena atropurpurea (Wied, 1820), and Cotinga maculata (Statius Müller, 1776). These findings in non-protected areas of the Brazilian Atlantic Forest and, for C. maculata, at higher altitudes than previously reported, improve our understanding of the distribution of these threatened species and can aid in conservation efforts to protect them.
