Birds Hawaii
- Summary:
- The checklist that is included in this document lists all of the species of birds which have occurred naturally in Hawaii, and those that were introduced by man which are currently established as viable populations reproducing in the wild. It lists all endemic species and subspecies including those that are presumed to have become extinct in historic times. The geographic scope of this checklist includes all islands in the state of Hawaii west of Kure Atoll. It also includes Midway Atoll which is not legally part of the state of Hawaii. Coastal waters that stretch out as far as 200 nautical miles (370 kilometers) from any of these islands were included in this list. This list revises and updates the Checklist of Birds of Hawaii, (Pyle 1997), and previous versions of the checklist -- (Pyle 1977, 1979, 1983, 1988, and 1992).
