The Tuxtla Quail-Dove Zentrygon carrikeri is a poorly known, micro-endemic, and endangered species of southern Mexico. Almost no information has been published about this dove. We provide new information about its natural history, which resulted from community-based bird monitoring programs. We describe unknown breeding, feeding, bathing, social, alert, and roosting behaviors of the species. Moreover, we highlight the relevance of participatory science for studying and engaging society in the conservation of the Tuxtla Quail-Dove. Our observations on the species provide valuable information for guiding future research and enhancing conservation activities on this species. |
