Thailand Bird Listing
NEW REVISED NATIONAL BIRD LISTING BY BCST RECORDS COMMITTEE- November 2008
Roughly thirty species of birds have been added since the BCST published listing of the Thai bird fauna in year 2000 ( many more when recent taxonomic revisions are taken into account).

At present, we consider that 996 species of birds are known from the country.This listing is only a partial revision as, like its predecessor, it still largely follows the Sibley and Monroe sequence. This has the advantage, though, that it is already familiar to most Thai users. We therefore prefer to wait for a more definitive revision of the taxonomic sequence before we depart from it.

This draft list is produced so as to solicit feedback and further improvements. Comments should be directed to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it and labeled ?Attn. Records Committee Chairman.
