AviList: A Unified Global Checklist of the World’s Birds
AviList: A Unified Global Checklist of the World’s Birds is Now Available
We are excited to announce the launch of AviList: The Global Avian Checklist, a freely available, consensus taxonomy of all birds of the world. AviList integrates three major checklists:
- IOC World Bird List,
- eBird/Clements, and
- BirdLife International,
and provides key taxonomic and nomenclatural information. The first version was launched on 10 June 2025 and will be updated annually.
AviList is the result of a collaborative global effort supported by the International Ornithologists’ Union, Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology, BirdLife International, Avibase, and the American Ornithological Society.
