Texas State List
This list constitutes the official list of bird species accepted
for Texas by the TBRC. It includes Presumptive
Species for which written descriptions of sight records have
been accepted but the species has not yet met the requirements
for full acceptance on the Texas List.
Texas Review List
This list constitutes all species for which documentation
is requested. These species, in general, include birds that have
occurred four or fewer times per year anywhere in Texas over
a ten-year average. The TBRC also requests details on any record
of a species not yet accepted on the Texas State List.
Species not yet documented for Texas
The primary purpose of this unofficial list is to educate
birders unfamiliar with our avifauna about some common species
that do not normally occur in Texas. The TBRC requests details
on any record of a species on this list.
Specimens Not Located (SNL) List
This list comprises Review Species for which specimens, as
cited in the available literature, have yet to be located. Thanks
to the advent of the web and the increasing number of scientific
collections being computerized, we've recently found references
to many review species, the majority of which we had no prior
knowledge of. However, we still need help locating the specimens
that are left on this list.
