IOC WORLD BIRD LIST
The IOC World Bird List is an open access resource of the international community of ornithologists. Our primary goal is to facilitate worldwide communication in ornithology and conservation based on an up-to-date evolutionary classification of world birds and a set of English names that follow explicit guidelines for spellingand construction.
IOC LISTS – IOC WORLD BIRD LIST Ratites: Ostriches to tinamous; Megapodes, guans, guineafowl, New World quail; Pheasants, partridges, francolins; Screamers, ducks, geese, swans; Frogmouths, OilbirdMASTER LISTS
Master Lists. Direct access to the entire IOC World Bird List Google Sheet is available here: BOW Link. We Update the IOC list twice a year (starting Jan 2018) with advances in the taxonomy of world birds. Significant Updates are noted under “Comments” that includeReferences .
ORDERS OF BIRDS
A higher classification of modern birds (June 28, 2019) Improving sets of DNA sequences are revolutionizing the Avian Tree of Life and call for substantial revisions of the higher classification of birds, especially the sequence of the Orders (Hackett et al. 2008, Cracraft 2013, Jarvis et al. 2014, Prum et al. 2015, Suh et al. 2015). The revised sequence of Orders below is a step towards our UPDATES – IOC WORLD BIRD LIST The sheer number of revisions to subspecies between the 3 rd and 4 th editions of H&M precludes us from doing a complete revision of the non-passerines in this update. We will continue to provide those in subsequent updates of the IOC World Bird List and will evaluate and revise the passerine subspecies in a similar manner with the anticipated publication of Volume 2 of H&M 4.SPECIES UPDATES
Sunda Scimitar Babbler Pomatorhinus bornensis (including occidentalis) is split from Javan (Chestnut-backed) Scimitar Babbler P. montanus based on substantial vocal differences and fairly distinct plumages (Eaton et al. 2016, 2021).

Classification. Classifications are dynamic sets of hypotheses about population dynamics and evolutionary histories. They are subject to regular revision based on new published research, not static lists for implementation.

WELCOME
The IOC World Bird List is an open access resource of the international community of ornithologists. Our primary goal is to facilitate worldwide communication in ornithology and conservation based on an up-to-date evolutionary classification of world birds and a set of English names that follow explicit guidelines for spelling and construction. To keep up with the current industry of taxonomic revisions, the IOC editorial team and advisors update the web-based list each January and June. The updates include changes of recommended names or classification, additions of newly described species, corrections of nomenclature, and updates of species taxonomy. The IOC World Bird List complements three other primary world bird lists that differ slightly in their primary goals and taxonomic philosophy, i.e. The Clements Checklist of the Birds of the World , The Howard & Moore Complete Checklist of the Birds of the World, 4th Edition , and HBW Alive/Bird Life International . Improved alignment and consolidation of these independent taxonomic works is underway informally and was the topic of a vigorous Round Table discussion at the 2018 International Ornithological Congress in Vancouver, British Columbia. There was broad support for consolidation and improved alignment of global checklists of birds. Stay tuned! Special thanks always to our expert advisors (left panel), to Sally Conyne for compiling Ranges, to Larry Master, Colin Campbell and Geoff Jones for photos, to Peter Kovalik for spreadsheet magic, and to all volunteer participants. We welcome your corrections and your suggestions for improvement. You can reach us at WorldBirdNames.2@gmail.com. NOTICE (DEC 2, 2019) We are pleased to announce that Pamela Rasmussenjoined the IOC
team as a Managing Editor, effective Dec 1, 2019. Pam brings to our team her global expertise in bird taxonomy as well as leadership on the systematics of the birds of South Asia. She is a member of the AOS Committee on Classification and Nomenclature, an Editor of Zootaxa and an avid world birder. Pam is on the faculty of Michigan State University where she founded AVoCet (Avian Vocalizations Center at MSU) and takes lucky undergraduates on world birding adventures.Welcome Pam!
NOTICE (JAN 27, 2020) With very mixed feelings but a fulfilling 25 years, I will retire from the IOC World Bird List project effective February 1, 2020. Pamela Rasmussen and David Donsker will continue to manage IOC world bird taxonomy, guided by our advisors and a host of diligent volunteers. This has been a community project from the beginning, with broad participation by hundreds of academic colleagues and scholarly world birders. I thank all of you for your many contributions, for your encouragement and for your patience.Frank
NOTICE (JAN 27, 2020) STATEMENT OF MANAGING EDITORS, IOC WORLD BIRDLIST
As you are aware, our dear friend and respected colleague, Frank Gill, has announced that he will be stepping down as a Managing Editor of the IOC World Bird List as of February 1, 2020 Frank has been the heart, mind and soul of this project since its inception a quarter of a century ago. The inspiration, commitment and leadership that he provided to make the IOC World Bird List one of the most consulted and adopted taxonomic resources for the world’s avifauna cannot be overstated. His knowledge and leadership will besorely missed.
But rest assured that we are committed as much as ever to continue this legacy. We consider it an honor and a great responsibility that Frank has entrusted this project to us. Frank will remain engaged as one of our most respected advisors. We intend to retain, and as opportunity and necessity arise, expand the team that Frank assembled and nurtured to create and maintain this project. We recognize that the IOC World Bird List has been successful largely due to our advisors, who provide it with a global perspective and a high level ofexpertise.
We also believe that the IOC list is especially valuable due to efficient, yet careful analysis of the content of new taxonomic works; timely semiannual updates; and responsiveness to the advice and queries of knowledgeable and interested correspondents. We will continue to follow those principles and others articulated on the website, and we expect a smooth transition. We are similarly committed to working closely with the principals associated with the other major world bird lists to further reduce the differences between lists. With deep thanks and admiration to our retiring colleague, here’s to the bright future of the IOC World Bird List. We are eager to assure its continued success. As always we welcome constructive input. Pamela C. Rasmussen and David B. Donsker THIS WEBSITE PROVIDES: * HTML lists of 10,770 extant species and 158 extinct species of birds of the world (Version 10.1), with subspecies (20,005) and annotations.* Spreadsheets in
different formats, XML versions of the Master List, and Comparisons with other world lists.* Classification
of 40
Orders, 250 Families, 2322 Genera * Updates of new species and proposed splits, taxonomic revisions, and changes of names. * Spelling guidelines for English bird names,
including On hyphens and phylogeny (WJO 2009)SUGGESTED CITATION:
