Descripción
As a result of some spot observations conducted on Managua, capital city of
Nicaragua, a preliminary list of mollusks and birds was published. The list was made
up of 18 species, 12 families and three orders of mollusks as well as 41 species, 23
families and 9 orders of birds. These values are consistent with total species numbers
estimated by experts on these taxa for the country. This was the first inventory from
these taxa associated to the city of Managua, where previous data on trees already
existed. These results are analyzed in the light of existing literature on the subject.
