We report on the capture of an adult male Rufous-tailed Attila (Attila phoenicurus) in Mburucuyá National Park, Corrientes, Argentina. This is first record for this protected area, and also province. Records species are scarce Argentina, where it had been registered previously only Misiones Populations believed to be declining, considered a “threatened species” If confirmed, regular presence perhaps even breeding Park would extend species’ distribution range approximately 200 km southwest, implying that threatened occurs at least one large area
