Talk:List of Australian, New Zealand and Antarctic birds
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Could this article be better at List of Australasian birds? -- Zoe
[edit] Official
On the Birds of Australia article it says that this is an "offical list". Who was this list compiled by?--Peta 06:09, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
- Official in the sense that it is not the Birds Australia unofficial working list... The source list was originally compiled for HANZAB, the pre-eminent scientific reference on Australian Birds (seven volumes published between 1991 and 2006). The current HANZAB list is maintained by Birds Australia, the peak Australian NGO, and includes subsequent revisions. --Glen Fergus 01:26, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Move?
"Australasian" is an ill-defined term, implying some asian content (perhaps PNG, Indonesia) that isn't there. Perhaps "List of Australian, New Zealand and Antarctic birds"? Long-winded, but accurate. --Glen Fergus 22:53, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
