ap p e n d i x ii Avian Diversity and Relative Abundance In ascertaining the abundance of each species we followed the Smithsonian’s guide: C Common; more than 20 individuals encountered daily in prime habitat and season F Fairly common; 5-20 individuals encountered daily in prime habitat and season U Uncommon; present in small numbers (fewer than 5 individuals per day); not encountered daily even in prime habitat and season S Scarce; only occasionally encountered in small numbers even in prime habitat and season In the table the evidence of the bird is described as S Sighting, V vocalisation, C Camera Trap or M mist net. In many cases the vocalisation is more diagnostic than a brief sighting and playback was successfully used on a number of occasions to identify birds, in particular cryptic understory species such as Todd’s Antwren and the Helmeted Pygmy tyrant.
