- Abstract
In Brazil, 53 species of birds are nocturnal and crepuscular. Even though the ecotonal region of the Cerrado and Atlantic Forest in southern Minas Gerais is ornithologically well studied, there are still no surveys focusing on the nocturnal and twilight bird species. Here, we present records of 28 nocturnal and crepuscular, which represents 53% of the species in this category occurring in Brazil. We comment on the species’ regional distribution and highlight the threatened species, aiming togenerate bases for future conservation and preservation actions.
