Links to other Identification Bibliographies

The Kirkland Bird Club has a searchable index of recent articles in Birding, Birder's World, WildBird, Bird Watcher's Digest, and Living Bird.
Angus Wilson has compiled a nice bibliography of important recent identification papers.
Clarice Watson's compendium of older identification papers appeared in Oregon Birds 12(4):277-322, 1986, and is now available in portable document format.
The Maryland/District of Columbia Bird Records Committee maintains an online list of selected identification resources. Updated 12 July 2000 and now in portable document format.
Jan-Erik Malmstigen maintains an online list of SWEDISH identification articles.
Also recommended is "Bird Identification. A reference guide" by Kristian Adolfsson & Stefan Cherrug which covers primarily European species and journals through 1994. See http://www.skof.se/supp/suppl37.htm.
Special thanks to Bram Aarts for alerting us to some of these sites.

Below we provide pointers to particular journal issues, not full citations. This list was originally intended for personal use and the journal selection is limited, but we thought it might prove useful to a wider audience. Periodically we hope to expand it and keep it relatively current. This is an ongoing project for which we welcome suggestions, corrections and additions. Please send feedback to Dan Singer at dsg@isp.net or to me at jmorlan@ccsf.org
