Guía de aves de presa diurnas de México = Diurnal birds of prey of Mexico / Gerardo Del Olmo L. ; Emilio Roldan V..
”Por la excelente ubicación de México en el planeta, y debido a que aproximadamente a la mitad de nuestro país se encuentra la división de las dos zonas biogeográficas americanas: la Neártica y la Neotropical, el territorio nacional es uno de los más ricos del mundo en cuanto a aves de presa diurnas se refiere. Esta riqueza ornitológica mexicana se debe a la gran diversidad de altitudes, climas y ecosistemas que poseemos, los que le proporcionan a este extraordinario grupo de aves depredadoras, una magnífica posibilidad para vivir, reproducirse o pasar las temporadas invernales. De las 338 aves de presa diurnas que habitan en el mundo, 57 especies (16%) viven en México, y a nivel continental, únicamente Colombia está por arriba de nosotros con 72 especies. La guía que tienes en tus manos, contiene las imágenes y datos biológicos de todas las aves de presa diurnas mexicanas, así como un resumen histórico y cultural de cómo este tipo de avifauna, ha influido en nuestra sociedad. Con ello pretendemos que conozcas, aprendas y te sensibilices, a fin de que procures el respeto y cuidado que se merecen todos los seres vivos en general y este bello conjunto de aves en particular.” -- Back cover.
"Because of Mexico's excellent location on the planet, and since the division between the two biogeographical regions of America, the Neartic and Neotropic, is found approximately in the middle of our country, the national territory is one of the richest of the world when it comes to diurnal birds, This abundance of birds in Mexico is due to the great variety of altitudes, climates and ecosystems that we have, and that provide this extraordinary group of birds of prey with a magnificent opportunity to live, reproduce or overwinter. Of the 338 diurnal birds of prey that live on Earth, 57 species (16%) can be found in Mexico, and on this continent, only Colombia, with 72 species, has more species than we have. The guide that you have in your hand, contains images and biological data of all of the Mexican diurnal birds of prey, as well as the historical and cultural summary of how this type of avifauna has influenced our society. This way we hope you may get to know, learn about, become sensitive towards and deepen your respect and care for this beautiful group of birds in particular and all living things in general." -- Back cover.
