dc.description.abstract | This report documents a new occurrence of Aramides mangle (Spix, 1825) (Little Wood-Rail) in Cayenne Town, French Guiana, marking a significant range extension within the country. Prior sightings of this species in French Guiana were scarce, confined to the Kourou Town area from 2021 to 2024. The present record, confirmed by the homologation committee of Groupe d'Étude et de Protection des Oiseaux en Guyane (GEPOG), extends the known range of A. mangle into the Cayenne region and provides fresh insights into its distributional dynamics in response to environmental factors. This observation adds to the growing body of evidence suggesting potential range shifts among coastal rallids in South America, particularly along the northeastern coast where climate change and habitat modifications are increasingly documented. | |
