Title	Population ecology, habitat requirements, and conservation of neotropical migratory birds:
Creator	Finch, Deborah M.
Contributor	Rocky Mountain Forest and Range Experiment Station (Fort Collins, Colo.)
Description	In 1990, the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation proposed a major initiative for the conservation of migratory landbirds that breed in North America and winter in neotropical countries. This report was prepared in support of the Foundation's Neotropical Migratory Bird Conservation Program and the USDA Forest Service's role in the program. Recent analyses of local and regional bird population counts, radar migration data, and capture data from banding stations show that forest-dwelling bird species, many of which are neotropical migrants, have experienced population declines in many areas of North America. The factors that have been advanced to explain the population declines include forest fragmentation on the breeding grounds, deforestation of wintering habitats, pesticide poisoning, or the cumulative effects of habitat changes. This literature review summarizes current information on population trends of neotropical migratory birds and the factors affecting migrant populations on the breeding and wintering grounds. Opportunities for research, monitoring, and conservation of neotropical migrants on Forest Service lands are discussed.
