Abstract

We present several records of the Cinereous Becard (Pachyramphus rufus) in the departments of Vichada, Casanare and Meta in the Eastern Llanos of Colombia, where no previous records existed. Our reconstruction of the geographical distribution suggests that the species is found throughout the Venezuelan and Colombian llanos, and the major rivers east of the Andes appear not to act as geographical barriers. The lack of previous records in this area appears mainly due to access difficulties and the political conflict. This data bias is a major gap in the information on the distribution of many bird species in eastern Colombia.
