How
to use the checklists
Select the parameters from the drop-down lists to provide the checklist
which you require:
 |
the area for which the checklist is required |
|
English or French names |
|
all species on the country checklist or a checklist which excludes vagrants, uncertain records, locally extinct species etc. |
|
the taxonomy which you require |
The system has been developed and tested using Internet Explorer
7, Safari and Firefox web browsers in association with Acrobat Reader
version 8.0.
The checklist will be produced as a .pdf file. Page 1 is a header
page, page 2 contains information on use and nomenclature and pages
3 onwards contain the checklist which you have requested. Each page
contains 50 species with status, names and tick boxes.
The following is the key for the status information.
A |
Africa |
B |
Breeding record confirmed |
E |
locally Extinct including former breeding records |
I |
Introduced species |
M |
Migrant including on passage through this country |
N |

O |
Oceanic |
P |
breeds in Palearctic |
R |
Resident |
V |
Vagrant |
W |
Winters (non-breeding season) |
X |

§ and ? |

Combinations of these keys have been used throughout and should be
self-explanatory but the following are examples of the more common:
RB

Resident in the country and Breeding records confirmed |
PW
|
breeds in the Palearctic and Winters in the country |
AM
