In addition to the species listed by Startersfield er al. (1998). the restricted-range Ochraceous Wren Troglodytes ochraceus occurs in the Darien Highlands EBA. and Yellowish-green TsTannulet Phylloscartes flavovirens and Tawny-capped Euphoria Euphonia anneae occur in the Darien Lowlands EBA.

Startersfield et al. (1998) listed Xarino Tapaculo Scyralopus vicinior as a species of the Darien Highlands, but it has recently been determined (Krabbe & Schulenberg 199") that the Darien birds belong to a newly described species. Choco Tapaculo S. chocoensis, which also has a restricted range. Three main mountain ranges run m parallel lengthwise along the isthmus in easternmost Panama (Fig. 1). The range along the Caribbean coast, the Serrania de Darien. includes the highest peak in the region. Cerro Tacarcuna (1,875 m). The Serrania de Pirre ( m) occupies the centre of the isthmus, with the outlying ridge of the Altos de Quia to its south-east along the Colombian border. Along the Pacific coast, the highest part of the ranges, at the headwaters of the rios Sambu and Jaque. is known as the Serrania de Jungurudo. The maximum elevation indicated on CARIBBEAN SEA.
