Trip checklist for the birds of Ecuador and Peru
I have followed the order of the Birds of Ecuador, by Robert S. Ridgely
and Paul J. Greenfield in producing a
trip checklist, i.e., species by day checkboxes, to all the
birds listed therein.
I have a similar checklist ala the new Birds of Peru,
by James F. Clements and Noam Shany. And you can see the Peru list here as an unformatted web page.
There is also an older checklist following An Annotated List
of the Birds of Mainland Ecuador
by Robert S. Ridgely, Paul J. Greenfield and Mauricio Guerrero G.
(Fundación Ornitológica del Ecuador, CECIA. 1998. 155pp).
The Annotated List contains distributional
and abundance information which is not included in the checklist.
This older checklist can be obtained by emailing me.
The checklists are in multiple forms: a Word table, an Excel spreadsheet, and a comma-delimited
text file. The Word
version has room for 15 days but you can add or subtract columns from this file. These files are
in Adobe Acrobat .pdf format and zipped format (see below).
You will need the free
Acrobat reader to view and print the pdf versions. If you do not have the reader, here
is a link to download one: get reader . Don't worry - it actually looks significantly better when
printed than it appears on this web page or in the reader.
The word table format checklists looks something like this, with black separator lines and
some thin horizontal and vertical double lines every fifth row and column for
orientation (the ordering here is fictional for illustrative purposes):

Here is a one-page test (of the first page of the zipped Ecuador word table) to see if you are able to properly
unzip the file: "zipped test page"
Here is a one-page test (of the first page of the Ecuador word table) to see if you can download and/or
view the file in Acrobat reader: "pdf test page"
Be patient - some of the files below are large. It may take a couple minutes
to download the largest to you.
I have also prepared indices to the Ecuador and Eeru checklists which use
page numbers and group names.
