List by Scientific Names
This is a list of scientific names taken from the excellent Zoonomen resource by Alan Peterson M.D. based on Sibley&Monroe; AOU Checklist (7th Ed.) with supplements; Howard & Moore Checklist 3rd Ed. with Corrigenda; and additional current literature but without citations.
Subspecies have been included and follow Handbook Birds of the World (as available), Howard & Moore Checklist 3rd Ed., and additional current literature.
The decision to use Sibley and Monroe's checklist as the base was taken as I currently employ the same in the Australasian Bird Image Database (ABID)
*Note: This project will always be in progress and therefore incomplete, I intend to build up the lists to a useable state and then would welcome (authenticated) user involvement to enter data, please contact me if you feel you can assist.
