BLANCAS-CALVA, Epifanio; CASTRO-TORREBLANCA, Marisol y BLANCAS-HERNANDEZ, Jean Cristian. Presence of the Eurasian Collared Dove (Streptopelia decaocto) and the African Collared Dove (Streptopelia roseogrisea) in the state Guerrero, Mexico. Huitzil [online]. 2014, vol.15, n.1, pp.10-16. ISSN 1870-7459.
We recorded the Eurasian Collared Dove (Streptopelia decaocto) and the African Collared Dove (Streptopelia roseogrisea) in the state of Guerrero. We recorded the former in five municipalities of the state, in areas with secondary and introduced vegetation. There the Eurasian Collared Dove has established, reproduced and increased its population. We recorded the African Collared Dove in captivity in the cities of Chilapa de Álvarez and Chilpancingo. The Eurasian Collared Dove exhibited a behavioural pattern of greater mobility and independence of human presence; in contrast, the African Collared Dove is a species that lives in close dependence on humans. We found that the Eurasian Collared Dove is spreading rapidly in Guerrero state, while the African Collared Dove is reproduced by people as an ornamental bird.
