| Abstract | --Overwintering migrants composed 61.3% of the individuals and 40.3% of the species mist-netted in a large citrus plantation in central Belize during the winters of 19861987 and 1987-1988. The percentage of migrants ranged from 50.0 to 80.6% of the individuals within five individual orange and grapefruit groves. The most frequently captured migrant species were Black-and-white Warbler (Mniotilta varia) and Magnolia Warbler (Dendroica magnolia), which together composed 36% of the 509 neotropical migrants of 25 species captured during more than 3300 net hours. The Rufous-tailed Hummingbird (Arnazilia tzacatl) was the most common of the 37 species of neotropical residents that were netted. These numbers and proportions of overwintering migrants are higher than previously reported from any other habitat on the Yucatan peninsula, but citrus plantations are not suitable for all migratory species.
