  1. Sorry, had to re-identify it because the species record already existed for the older name "Phalacrocorax brasilianus". This bird seems to have many scientific names. Posted 9 months ago
    1. Oh that makes sense! Every now and then they change some brazilian birds scientific name. This is one of them. Thank you! I'll keep it's current name in the title. Posted 9 months ago

The Neotropic cormorant is a medium-sized cormorant found throughout the American tropics and subtropics, from the middle Rio Grande and the Gulf and Californian coasts of the United States south through Mexico and Central America to southern South America, where he is called by the Indian name of "biguá".
