especie rupícola
Spanish to English
Science
Zoology
Hi, I would appreciate your help with this term.
I'm not providing any context because it's not really necessry and the context I have is not really worth mentioning apart from including also aves rupícolas. I have read somewhere that they are birds that nest in rocks, but can't find the English term for rupícolas.
Thanks
:)

cave-dwelling species
I think this would probably be more widely used, though not that many birds are cave-dwellers

:-(
and far more bats (than birds) are cave-dwellers

sorry, I meant rock-dwelling - not sure why I was thinking caves here, but rock-dwelling species
It is a ground-feeding, rock-dwelling bird of arid, coastal regions, at altitudes of 75-750 m (though once seen at 1,425 m),
