The cover illustration represents the inventory of bird species that occur in Piranhas Velha, Paraíba, northeastern Brazil. In the article in this issue, the species were recorded over a period of 4 months during visits to the study area between November 2021 and February 2022. The active search method was used to identify the species visually in situ or later through photographic records. The species studied by Pereira & Medeiros (2023) were categorized into three habitats (urban, semi-urban and rural) to investigate differences in composition between environments with different levels of urbanization.
