The Lesser Ground-cuckoo is a species of cuckoo in the monotypic genus Morococcyx in the family Cuculidae. It is found in Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, and Nicaragua.

The Lesser Ground Cuckoo is classified as Least Concern. Does not qualify for a more at risk category. Widespread and abundant taxa are included in this category.

I have definitely heard Lesser Ground Cuckoo at the mirador but not lower down at Singayta. To see the Ground Cuckoo can be a real challenge- expect to use a tape on that one and pretend you are looking for a Rail. More
