John,
I went to Uzbekistan last year on a 'non-birding'  cultural trip
but did quite a lot of birding on the side. I found 'A Field Guide to the Birds 
of the Indian Subcontinent' by Krys Kazmierczak (Pica Press) covered about 90% 
of the potential species and most of the remainder were covered in Collins Bird 
Guide(to Britain and Europe) by Lars Svensson and Peter J.Grant. Uzbekistan has 
very severe winters so most species migrate out of the place, hence the 
coverage in these field guides. You can download a checklist of Uzbekistan from 
'Avibase-the World bird database'.
A very interesting place with some great birding.
