We isolated and characterized a total of 24 microsatellite loci from the orange-breasted falcon (Falco deiroleucus). Loci were screened in 32 individuals currently maintained as a captive population: 13 wild-caught individuals from Panama and four from Belize, and the remaining 15 were first generation F1 offspring. The number of alleles per locus ranged from 2 to 9, observed heterozygosity ranged from 0.000 to 0.938, and the probability of identity values ranged from 0.075 to 0.604. These new loci will provide tools for identifying relatedness values among sampled individuals currently in captivity and for exploring genetic diversity levels and connectivity between populations in Central America.
