The now defunct Rhode Island Ornithological Club compiled a checklist of the birds of Rhode Island in 2002, which was published by the Audubon Society of Rhode Island. This list formed the basis for the more up to date RIBird.org list, maintained by Paul L'Etoile and kindly provided by Paul for use by BUBO Listing.

BUBO Listing uses this, updated to follow the latest AOU taxonomy.
