ASH-COLOURED CUCKOO Micrococcyx cinereus

Austral migrant. Guilherme (2009) first reported the species in HFR. A female, collected on 20 July 2007, is deposited in Belém (MPEG 63485). The date of this record corresponds to the coldest part of the austral winter in southern Brazil, where the species breeds (Payne 2019a).

YELLOW-BILLED CUCKOO Coccyzus americanus

Nearctic migrant. One observed by DPG foraging for insects in the canopy on 30 October 2017 (WA3515980; Fig. 2B). Breeds in North and Middle America, and migrates to South America in the boreal winter (Payne 2019b). The date of this record indicates that C. americanus arrives in the region shortly before the start of the boreal winter. Only the third record in Acre (GBIF 2019, Wikiaves 2019).
