English. Pub Year 1989, See images for condition. About the book >.>.> A Guide to the Birds of Panama: With Costa Rica, Nicaragua, and Honduras by Robert S. Ridgely serves as an essential resource for bird enthusiasts and ornithologists interested in the avifauna of Central America. Covering an area of 75,648 square kilometres, Panama is situated at the southern tip of Middle America, functioning as a vital land bridge between North and South America. This unique geographical position contributes to an exceptional biodiversity, with approximately 883 bird species recorded in the Republic, significantly more than are identified in all of North America north of Mexico. The guide highlights the long-standing interest in Panama's birdlife, which has been studied for over a century and is considered one of the most well-documented in the neotropics.The narrative delves into the historical context of ornithological exploration in Panama, detailing early contributions by collectors such as James McLeannan, who made significant bird collections in the former Canal Zone during the mid-nineteenth century. His specimens helped describe several new species, mainly by prominent ornithologists like George Lawrence and Osbert Salvin. Other notable collectors, such as Enrique Arcé in Veragua, further enriched the understanding of the region's avifauna. The guide provides insights into these explorations, while also emphasising that many areas within Panama remain under-explored and present opportunities for new discoveries.Overall, Ridgely's work is not only a comprehensive guide to identifying bird species in this biologically diverse region but also a testament to the ongoing efforts to understand and document the rich avian life of Panama and its neighbouring countries.
