Annual distribution, abundance, and reproductive status of Mexican Green Parakeet and other psittacids in the mountainous zone of Chihuahua, Sonora, and Sinaloa, Mexico

Project Description

The Mexican Green Parakeet, found in northwestern Mexico, is currently one of the least known subspecies of psittacids. Little is known about its biology, distribution, and population health, or habitat requirements. Mexican Green Parakeet is listed as Endangered on the Mexican Norma Oficial-059 and as a species of Continental Concern by the SJV. Immediate action is needed to establish conservation strategies for this species. Through this project we will identify priority areas in order to establish mechanisms for protecting Mexican Green Parakeet and its habitat and will identify current and future threats to support collaborative actions for the conservation of biodiversity.
