ALVAREZ MONDRAGON, Esperanza y J. MORRONE, Juan. Propuesta de áreas para la conservación de aves de México, empleando herramientas panbiogeográficas e índices de complementariedad. INCI [online]. 2004, vol.29, n.3, pp.112-120. ISSN 0378-1844.
Distribution patterns of 139 Mexican land bird species were compared, through a panbiogeographic approach, and 14 generalized tracks were obtained. In the intersection of these generalized tracks, we found 15 nodes, which were prioritized according to their complementarity, phylogenetic diversity, and conservation status of the species. "Eastern Oaxaca" and "central Guerrero" were detected as important for conservation of Mexican birds.
