Demography and Populations
Introduction
Populations appear to be relatively large (66), and the species is reported to be locally common to fairly common (4). There are no long-term survey data, but the population is believed to be in small decline (66).
Measures of Breeding Activity
Age at First Breeding
No information.
Intervals Between Breeding
No information.
Clutch Size and Number of Clutches per Season
Clutch size ranges from 3–4 eggs (4).
Annual and Lifetime Reproductive Success
No information.
Number of Broods Normally Reared per Season
No information.
Life Span and Survivorship

Disease and Body Parasites
In Nevado de Toluca and Valle de Bravo, Mexico (67) (n = 6):
- 1 individual infected with Haemoproteus spp. with a "medium intensity infection."
- 1 individual infected with Leucocytozoon spp. with a "medium intensity infection."
Causes of Mortality
No information.
Population Spatial Metrics
Individual Distance
No information.
Territory Size
Marshall (52: 118) suggested that the species "did not seem to have territorial boundaries." See Home Range Size.
Home Range Size
May be loosely colonial (4). Marshall (52: 118) suggested that home ranges overlapped and described a meadow, ~1.2 km in diameter, as occupied by a "colony" of 24 adults.
Population Status
Numbers
There are no estimates of population size based on survey data, but populations are reported to be relatively large (66). Reported to be locally common to fairly common (4).
During 25–26 June 1952 in Upper Rio Gavilan, Chihuahua, Marshall (52) reported a density of "4.8 pairs of Striped Sparrow per km in the sampled habitat" (a meadow of 1-km diameter with a colony of about 24 adults). During spring and summer 2016 in Playa Cebolletas, a small montane grassland in Aguascalientes, 7 individuals were recorded in 4.9 ha (~140 individuals per km2) (DACM).
Trends
There are no long-term survey data, but the population is believed to be in small decline (66).
Population Regulation
