Range Description

Tachycineta euchrysea is very rare and local in Jamaica, where it is known from Cockpit Country and across the central highlands to the Blue Mountains and surrounding areas^1,9. The race sclateri is locally common in Haiti and the Dominican Republic, especially in the Cordillera Central, Sierra de Baoruco^3,11 and Massif de la Selle². The Jamaican population was common in the late 19th century, but there are very few recent records and both populations have declined dramatically^4,5,9.
