[Cardellina canadensis] (VAG):breeds in southern Canada and northeastern USA, from where it departs in late July or August to fly mainly south through the Mississippi Valley and the Appalachian Mountains to the Gulf of Mexico and reach South America by different pathways in late September (Curson, 2016c). Spring migration starts from March in Peru to mid-April in Colombia.The species reaches the south of the breeding area in late April and the north in late May (Curson, 2016c). The alleged Brazilian record for RR in April (Sick, 1997) is of a skin collected in the Venezuelan portion of the Serra Parima (Mallet-Rodrigues, 2002). There are two undocumented records for RJ in November 2004 and January 2006 (Whittaker & Foster, 2005; Gagliardi, 2006).
