Yucatan Wren

Campylorhynchus yucatanicus (Hellmayr, 1934)

Troglodytidae — Wrens

Yucatan Wren, Campylorhynchus yucatanicus, is a bird of the northern Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico, where it breeds in a very narrow coastal belt. It is confined to dry scrub and related coastal habitats, including areas beside mangrove forest and the Petenes mangroves of the Yucatán coast. The species is restricted to this small range and is affected by habitat destruction as development for tourism alters the land it uses. It is a member of the wren family, Troglodytidae, and was described by Hellmayr in 1934.
