We no longer receive taxonomic updates or new additions to the UK400 Club list, and the UK400 Club website seems to be permanently offline. Therefore, we are no longer supporting it on BUBO Listing. We recommend listers use IOC instead.

Although the UK400 club is primarily concerned with birding in Britain and Ireland, they do also provide a Western Palearctic list. As with the UK400 list for Britain and Ireland, this list takes a more liberal approach to splitting and potential escapes than does the AERC or IOC, and its taxonomic decisions are not fully documented. It is assumed that the UK400 club's Western Palearctic list refers to the same geographical area as that of the AERC, i.e. the area used by Birds of the Western Palearctic.

The list used by BUBO Listing for this authority incorporates changes up to February 2011, i.e. the addition of Slaty-backed Gull Larus schistisagus.

First select authority to copy existing species from, then type species name, or enter a new species directly.
Species name is defaulted from the previous species row and should of course be overwritten!
Genus is defaulted from the previous species row but may need overwriting; specific needs to be entered in either case.

NB: Species name for the old taxon should be updated to differentiate it from the split taxa using a '/' or '[group]', e.g. Species A/Species B or Species A [group].
NB: Scientific name should also be updated similarly, e.g. Genus specific A/specific B or Genus specific A [group]
NB: Notes only allow up to 255 characters, but there is no enforcement of this. Anything longer will be truncated without warning.
NB: Species name for the old taxon should be updated to differentiate it from the split taxa using '[lumped]', e.g. Species A [lumped].
NB: Scientific should also be updated, using '[lumped]' or brackets for the old specific name, e.g. Genus specific [lumped] or Genus [specific] subspecific.
NB: Notes only allow up to 255 characters, but there is no enforcement of this. Anything longer will be truncated without warning.
