A Report from birdtours.co.uk |
SYSTEMATIC LIST OF BIRDS,
This list follows the sequence and scientific nomenclature of James F. Clements (July 1991, Birds of the World, A Check List and Supplement No. 1, 1992).
This specific treatment follows Dr. Charles Sibley and Dr. Burt L. Monroe, Jr (1990, Distribution and Taxonomy of Birds of the World, Yale University Press).
Species in parentheses are the English names in "Birds of Argentina & Uruguay by T. Narosky and D. Yzurieta, but only mentioned when these differ significantly from the Clements Check List. The Dutch names follow the translated "The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Birds of the World" (Geïllustreerde Encyclopedie van de Vogels) of Dr. Christopher M. Perrins.
Data are estimates of the minimum numbers seen.
I have not listed exact numbers and sites of all species. I am sure that any birder can survive without knowing how many Shiny Cowbirds we saw at Joaquin V. Gonzalez or at Costanera Sur.
The following abbreviations are used:
NP = National Park
100+ = at least 100 birds
Provinces:
(BA) = Buenos Aires
(C) = Chubut
(J) = Jujuy
(M) = Misiones
(S) = Salta
(SC) = Santa Cruz
(TF) = Tierra del Fuego
