Abstract

The Maroon-chested Ground-Dove (Paraclaravis mondetoura) lives in cloud forests, especially where bamboo plants are abundant. It is considered a very rare species and little known in Colombia. This species is considered nomadic, since it appears when there are bamboo fruiting episodes, which occur only at long and unpredictable intervals (which could explain the scarcity of records in general). For more than a century there were no records of this species in Norte de Santander. We present three new records of P. mondetoura in the vicinity of the municipality of Pamplona (Norte de Santander) associated with the fructification of bamboo found in the area, which supports the presence of the species in the department. However, the regional level little is still known regarding the movements and reproductive biology of this species.
