The Complete Checklist of the Birds of the World - A Review,
By CW (Honolulu, HI, USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Howard and Moore Complete Checklist of the Birds of the World: Third Edition (Hardcover)
This is the only work I have come across so far dealing with all known species as well as subspecies of birds of the world. Each species is listed with all known geographic subspecies (if any) with full scientific name (i.e. including author and year). Also, the editors add a review of the incorrect scientific nomenclature in current use, for example, Psittacula calthorpae is widely spelt as Psittacula calthropae, which is incorrect according to the editors. The last section of the book contains an extensive bibliography (of some 2000 references), so this is useful to anyone who will be reading further about the subject. I highly recommend this work for anyone serious about birds.
