Author's comments:
La Calandria Chilena o Tenca (Mimus thenca) hasta hace pocos años era considerada endémica de Chile. En el 2006 comenzó a registrarse en Argentina en el noroeste de Neuquén (Matarasso y Seró López, 2008). En el 2014 Cusano y Cusano (2015) hallaron una población unos 350 km más al sur, también dentro de la provincia de Neuquen. Hoy hay registros inéditos incluso más al sur, al parecer llegó para quedarse y va a seguir dando sorpresas.
