Resumen
SORIA, Karina y BARBOZA, Exequiel. First description of the nest and nestlings of Diglossa sittoides (Thraupidae) in Argentina. Hornero [online]. 2016, vol.31, n.1, pp.57-60. ISSN 0073-3407.
The Rusty Flower-Piercer (Diglossa sittoides) is distributed in Argentina in Jujuy, Salta, Tucumán, Catamarca and La Rioja, where it inhabits montane forests. The reproductive biology of the species is virtually unknown. Nest site, nest and nestlings of this species are described. Two nests with three nestlings each were found in grasslands in El Infiernillo (2800 masl), 20 km north of Tafí del Valle, Tucumán. The cup-shaped nests were constructed with material from the grassland and horse-bristles, and were located near the ground. Both parents were recorded feeding the nestlings.
