Rostrhamus sociabilis (Vieillot, 1817)

Records. Table 3.

Snail Kite individuals were identified by their size (Wc = 31.0 cm ± 2.8; n = 2), shape, and color pattern. They had long, broad, rounded wings, long tail with a white rump and under tail coverts, a dark and deeply hooked beak, and a long tarsus. Both of the road-killed individuals had dark brown upperparts and heavily streaked, pale underparts; they had a whitish face with darker areas

behind and above the eye, and the legs were yellow. The 2 individuals were probably both adult females.
