Implications of Intratropical Migration on Reserve Design: A Case Study Using Pharomachrus mocinno

Conservation Biology, 1995
As habitat loss continues, natural protected areas will become islands in human‐modified landscapes; maintenance of functional communities and ecosystems will depend on properly designed protected areas. We demonstrate that incorporating regional habitat linkages that allow for seasonal migrations of intratropical resident species ...

Acanthocephaliasis by Plagiorhynchus sp. (Acanthocephala:Plagiorhynchidae) associated with necrotic enteritis in quetzals (Pharomachrus mocinno) maintained in captivity

Parasitology International
The present report describes a case of acanthocephaliasis associated with necrotic enteritis in quetzals (Pharomachrus mocinno). Three juvenile quetzals exhibited depression, anorexia, ruffled feathers, and sudden death. They were submitted to the laboratory for examination.

Human impact on bird diversity and community structure in a tropical montane cloud forest in Alta Verapaz, Guatemala, with special reference to the Quetzal (Pharomachrus mocinno)

2005
Using birds as an exemplary animal group, the human influence on diversity, community structure and nutrition guild composition is examined in tropical montane cloud forest in Guatemala. Human impact is measured as differences in diversity and body mass in both natural forest and secondary forest (as a consequence of slash-and-burn agriculture).

Diet and Habitat Preference of the Resplendent Quetzal (Pharomachrus mocinno costaricensis) in Costa Rican Montane Oak Forest

2006
The results of this study can be used by planners and landowners to set reforestation and habitat management programmes (Chaps. 30, 32 and 33). The feasibility of planting certain tree and shrub species must yet be determined by means of systematic research in plant nurseries.
