Sinaloa Martin

The Sinaloa Martin is classified as Data Deficient (DD), inadequate information to make a direct, or indirect, assessment of its risk of extinction.

The Sinaloa Martin is definitely a subspecies of Progne dominicansis and should be known as Progne dominicansis sinaloae (Nelson). It is unquestionably very close to do- minicansis. More

The Sinaloa Martin (Progne sinaloae) is a species of bird in the Hirundinidae family. It is found in Belize, Guatemala, and Mexico. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montanes.

biggest find, however, was nesting SINALOA MARTINS in the cliff right above the road. They were nesting next to a RED-TAILED HAWK’S nest. In fact, an adult came in carrying a Ctenosaur in its talons, but was bombarded by some Myarchius species that actually prevented the hawk from delivering prey to its screeching young. Also detected at this stop were CANYON WREN & WHITE-THROATED SWIFTS. More

The elevational range of the Sinaloa Martin is 1100-2800 m (American Ornithologists' Union 1998). Probably breeds above the lower (coastal) areas occupied by Gray-breasted Martin (Progne chalybea), but below the elevations where Purple Martin (Progne subis) breeds (Phillips 1986). The nonbreeding distribution of Sinaloa Martin is completely unknown, although it often is suspected of wintering in South America, espeically in northern South America (e.g. Ridgely and Tudor 1989, Howell and Webb 1995, American Ornithologists' Union 1998, Restall et al. 2006).

The Sinaloa Martin very closely resembles the Caribbean Martin (Progne dominicensis), and it has often been considered conspecific with that bird (see Systematics). The breeding distribution of Caribbean and Sinaloa martins do not overlap. Presumably they also winter in separate areas, but geographic overlap during the nonbreeding season is a possibility. Sinaloa Martin would be difficult to distinguish from Caribbean Martin in the field, and perhaps even in the hand, on the basis of current information. More

In addition, the Sinaloa Martin is seen in Mexico only between mid-March and mid-July. Extended birding time is required in parts of the states of Sinaloa, Nayarit, and Jalisco: 1. The Mazatlan area - arid semi-deciduous thorn forest 2. The Mazatlan-Durango Highway into the Sierra Madre Occidental 3. The Tepic area, including the Cerro San Juan highlands 4. The San Blas area, including the coastal mangroves and estuary system 5. More
