Abstract
Here we present the first records of the Sooty Swift (Cypseloides fumigatus) for three Brazilian states (Bahia, Goiás, and Tocantins), expanding the species' range into northeastern and central Brazil and the northern part of the Cerrado biome, in addition to three new records for the state of Minas Gerais. We also present data on the breeding biology of C. fumigatus in a Cerrado landscape in the municipality of Ponte Alta do Tocantins, state of Tocantins, where 13 active nests were located.
