Information
is derived from Sibley & Monroe checklists and bird distribution lists
in Thayer's Birder's Diary - Version
2.05. Endemic birds can ONLY be found in the specific country listed. Speciality
birds, while not endemic, are those that can only be found in three or
less countries in South America. Information on endangered birds is derived
from the IUCN
Red List, Birdlife International, and the supporting data bases developed
by Ian Patton, of Merlin Species
Watcher. The endemic, endangered and speciality birds may be
uncommon, may be extremely rare vagrants, may be extirpated in a particular
country or may only be present in migration. Links for each country will
take you directly to the speciality bird information for that country.
