One Century of Breeding Bird Assessment by western travellers in Iran, 1876-1977
Year
: 2008
Abstract: This article lists 99 articles on distribution of wild birds in Iran, which appeared
between 1876 and 1977 and which were published by authors writing in European
languages. Each paper has a reference number and is supplied with annotations, giving the
localities and time of year where the bird observations had been made. These localities are
also listed on a separate website (www.wesca.net/podoces/podoces.html), supplied with
coordinates and the reference number. With help of these coordinates and the original
publications an historical atlas of bird distribution in Iran can be made. A few preliminary
examples of such maps are included. Many authors also collected bird specimens in Iran,
either to support their identifications or in order to enravel subspecies taxonomy of the
birds of Iran. The more important natural history museums containing study specimens
from Iran are listed.
