The Howard and Moore Complete Checklist of the Birds of the World
The fourth edition of The Howard and Moore Complete Checklist of Birds of the World was published in two volumes. The non-Passerine volume (4072 species), edited by Dickinson and Remsen, was published by Aves Press in 2013; its companion, the Passerine volume (6063 species), edited by Dickinson and Christidis, in 2014.
