Description:
The final volume in this monumental series contains a global index enabling quick access to locate any species or taxon. This volume also includes a number of species new to science which have been described since the publication of their respective volumes. The Special Volume covers and illustrates all of these 69 species with text, plates and distribution maps in the classic HBW format.
An unexpected addition to this volume is a section including the original scientific descriptions of 15 species, all totally new to science. These descriptions are the combined work of a number of renowned Amazonian ornithologists, and highlight the massive importance of the world's largest area of tropical forest.
