Presencia de la paloma turca (Streptopelia decaocto) en el archipiélago de Revillagigedo, México

A notable finding of the Turkish turtle dove (Streptopelia decaocto) in the Revillagigedo Archipelago, Mexico, was documented for the first time at two islands: Clarión and Socorro. Observations between March and July 2015 revealed adult birds associated with human activity, specifically around a naval base and its vessels. This discovery highlights the species' presence in remote, pristine environments influenced by anthropogenic factors. The study underscores the need for further research to assess the distribution, abundance, and ecological impacts of this invasive species on the archipelago's biodiversity.
