The BirdLife Australia Working List of Australian Birds

["Philip Veerman" <>]

Is there 2 typos in that? From Australasian to Australian and the double L. My copy of the book Wildfowl of the World has the photos of these two species transposed.

David, many thanks for drawing this to my attention.  I will need to study carefully but I note with amusement what must be a typo.

Hi, after a long wait we now have available the BirdLife Australia Working List of Australian Birds. This has been a long time in the development and is a fantastic achievement. The list, and information about it, are available online at http://www.birdlife.org.au/conservation/science/taxonomy .

And yes, it has the Australian Magpie as Cracticus tibicen.

Regards - David
