Guinea-Bissau (ABC)

The Guinea-Bissau checklist is an appropriate subset of the full African Bird Club list, based on the ABC country checklists.

Many additions have been made based on the book Important Bird Areas of Guinea-Bissau (Tim Dodman, Clive Barlow, Joãozinho Sá & Peter Robertson; Wetlands International), plus a few recent species for which records have been published in the ABC Bulletin. We are indebted to João Guilherme for his compilation of this updated list.

Note that separate ABC country lists are no longer maintained by ABC, so we instead recommend using Guinea-Bissau IOC.
