Endemic to the eastern Andes of Colombia in a restricted area of Cundinamarca and Boyacá departments. Inhabits humid montane forests at 1,700–2,700 m elevation. Vulnerable; extremely small range, heavily deforested habitat, and poorly known population size.
Banded Quail
A small New World quail (~125 g) of family Odontophoridae, with bold horizontal brown-and-white banding across the breast and flanks. Endemic to semi-arid scrublands, grasslands, and dry forests of the Balsas Depression in central Mexico. Forages in groups on the ground for seeds and invertebrates. Least Concern; a monotypic genus restricted to Mexico's western interior.
