Further notes on the avifauna of Oaxaca, México

BASED PRIMARILY UPON INTENSIVE FIELD WORK CONDUCTED ON THE ISTHMUS OF TEHUANTEPEC FROM 1959 - 1969 (AND THE SPECIMENS COLLECTED DURING THIS EFFORT), WE PRESENT DATA ON 235 SPECIES OF BIRDS TO SUPPLEMENT THE MONUMENTAL WORK OF BINFORD (1989) ON THE BIRDS OF OAXACA. THIRTEEN SPECIES ARE REPORTED AS NEW TO THE OAXACAN AVIFAUNA AS DEFINED BY BINFORD (1989): EIGHT FROM SIGHT RECORDS AND FIVE FROM SPECIMENS. BREEDING AND MOVEMENT DATA ARE ALSO PRESENTED FOR MANY SPECIES, EXPANDING OUR UNDERSTANDING OF THE REPRODUCTION AND MIGRATION OF BIRDS IN THE NORTHERN NEOTROPICS. SUSPECIFIC TAXONOMIC NOTES ARE INCLUDED FOR SOME SPECIES.
