About the book >.>.> Containing more than one-third of the world's bird species, the neotropical region surpasses all other zoogeographic regions in the diversity of its avian fauna. Though the exploration and cataloging stages of ornithology are now virtually complete, new species and undescribed subspecies of birds are still occasionally discovered. In this manual, Emmet R. Blake has drawn on his experience of forty-eight years in the field and laboratory to prepare a comprehensive, detailed, and authoritative synopsis of the avifauna of tropical America as now known. In its entirety, the four-volume Manual will treat all recorded species and subspecies from the mainlands of both Central and South America, the continental islands and adjacent waters, excluding Mexico, the West Indies, the Gal?pagos and Falkland Islands. Of the 3,300 species and perhaps 8,300 subspecies of birds, Volume 1 covers 600 species and about 1,500 subspecies of 48 families. Volume 2, now in preparation, will treat 17 additional families, term.
