Deskripsi
<p>We report new distribution records for <em>Doryfera ludovicae</em> (Trochilidae) and <em>Arremon castaneiceps</em> (Emberizidae), from southwestern Ecuador, based on mist-netting captures and visual observations. We suggest both species historically crossed from the eastern Andean slopes through the cordillera de Chilla as was been previously suggested in the literature for other taxa. There are no previous published reports of these species in the southwestern slopes of the Andes.</p>
