USGS Patuxent Wildlife Research Center: Obsolete English Names of North American Birds and Their Modern Equivalents The Check-list of North American Birds, published by the American Ornithologists' Union and considered the definitive source of both scientific and English names of birds by most North American workers, followed the practice of using English names for subspecies through its fourth (1931) edition. Ornithologists not well versed in taxonomic matters might save valuable research time if they could immediately relate a bit of information recorded in the older literature to the name of a species with which they are familiar. Many North American species were named because of superficial similarities to Old World groups—most thrashers were originally called thrushes, and many warblers were called flycatchers. www.pwrc.usgs.gov /research/pubs/banks/obsall.htm   (1851 words)

PROCEEDINGS OF THE NINETY-FIRST STATED MEETING OF THE AMERICAN ORNITHOLOGISTS' UNION Therefore, the American Ornithologists' Union firmly resolves to express its concern to granting institutions in the United States and Canada, in the hope that they will support basic research in Middle America upon the ecology of undisturbed areas, endangered populations of native plants and animals, and related critical environmental problems. The American Ornithologists' Union extends its appreciation to the Nuttall Ornithological Club for the privilege of being with you on this occasion and enjoying your hospitality. While we cannot claim the Nuttall Club as parent, history makes clear that three of the Club's most active members not only instituted the A.O.U. but passed on the spirit of their youthful club and its publication, the Bulletin of the Nuttall Ornithological Club. elibrary.unm.edu /sora/Auk/v091n02/p0387-p0410.html   (13112 words)

Ivory-billed woodpecker recordings The Cornell researchers announced the results at the annual meeting of the American Ornithologists' Union in Santa Barbara, Calif., Aug. 24, and they have invited the public to listen to the calls and knocks on the Web at http://www.birds.cornell.edu. The recordings reveal sounds that, experts say, are strikingly similar to those made by ivory-billed woodpeckers and provide compelling information that can be added to evidence already gathered of the bird's existence. www.news.cornell.edu /stories/Aug05/Ivorybill.sounds.html   (578 words)

CNN.com - Ivory-billed recordings convince doubters - Aug 2, 2005 The Cornell researchers plan to release the audio publicly at the American Ornithologists Union in Santa Barbara, California, later this month.
