Title: List of Migratory Birds 
Abstract: We will revise the List of Migratory Birds to conform with generally accepted taxonomy and nomenclature (i.e., English (common) and scientific names--as reflected in six published supplements to the 7th (1998) edition of the American Ornithologists' Union's Check-list of North American Birds); and to add species of known occurrence in the United States that are subject to protection under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act that do not appear on the current list.
