Description
This unique two-volume reference work presents the long-term research of two leading international experts and covers more than a thousand species and subspecies of songbirds from the western Palearctic. It contains current information on distribution, the appearance of each subspecies and its similarity to other species, as well as detailed identifying features and important measurements of individual body parts needed to determine age and sex. It also describes methods for examining relationships between species and the resulting changes in their taxonomic classification. The publication is groundbreaking in that it presents, for the first time in print, Czech names newly revised by the Czech Ornithological Society’s Nomenclature Commission. For clarity, lists of updated and original names appear at the end of both volumes. This beautifully produced, richly documented guide contains more than five thousand photographs and is intended for amateur and professional enthusiasts alike. The books are in Czech.
