Abstract
We present new data on the distribution of the Rufous-tailed Hawk (Buteo ventralis) in western Argentine Patagonia. We describe a sighting in Río Negro province. We report new sites in Neuquén, Río Negro and Chubut provinces where this hawk has been observed. The species is associated to forests, especially pure or mixed Nothofagus spp. forests.
