STATUS
Summer visitor. 

ABUNDANCE
Rare. Probably no more than 8-10 birds.

HABITAT
Pseudosteppe scenery of pastureland, broom scrub and open Holm-Oak woods.
SEASONAL BEHAVIOUR
The handful of birds breeding in Sierra Morena arrive in late spring and leave at the end of summer. 

DISTRIBUTION
One small breeding colony only in northern Sierra Morena Sevillana.

COMMENTS
The Black-Bellied Sandgrouse breeding here are probably an overspill from the much bigger population in neighbouring southern Badajoz.
