For which it was necessary to generate a diagnosis through a primary and secondary bibliographic review, obtaining the following components: in the socio-cultural part, "La Matriz" is the only urban parish in the canton with 10,064 inhabitants, within the environmental area, it has five sewage treatment plants that cover 85% of the metropolitan area, the remaining 15% is the cause of sources of contamination, in regards to the economic part, the population takes advantage of its pottery and trade as the primary source, and within the biophysical aspect, the territory presents erosion and loss of vegetation cover due to agricultural exploitation and expansion of the city. The presence of remnants of forests, home gardens, and three parks in the area with a high probability of observing birds, were aspects considered for the zoning of the study area, determining three zones; Z1 "Historical Center", Z2 "Limits," and Z3 "Urbanization", each one with four specific points for the census (A, B, C, and D), to then carry out the bird census using point-to-point counting, linear transects and intensive search as recording techniques, obtaining as a result 20 birds species, 12 families and 686 individuals, the Thraupidae family being the most predominant with five species within the Passeriforme order that represents 65% of the total species. With the established areas, a comparison was made using the Sorensen Index. The similarity between Zone 2 and Zone 3 is 75.86%, while the Margalef Index, the weighting of the entire urban area, is 2,90 of a total of five points, implying that it has a medium diversity. Once the information had been systematized and the ideas organized, the bird guide was carried out using Canva and Adobe Illustrator as computer tools. This guide contains 20 pages. It can find 12cm x14cm photographs of the birds that could be seen in the city, complemented with their taxonomic file and a brief description of each species facilitating their identification. |
