Birds from North Borneo

You've previously asked for a summary of "Birds from North Borneo" by Max C. Thompson, and I provided a detailed response on July 16, 2024. Here's a quick recap of the key points:

Focus: A scientific report on birds collected during a 1962-1963 expedition to North Borneo by the Bernice P. Bishop Museum.

Content:

• Detailed accounts of collected bird specimens: scientific names, locations, physical descriptions, habitat data, and any behavioral observations.
• Emphasis on birds from lowland habitats (rainforests, grasslands, mangroves, river ecosystems).
• Potential additional content: maps, data tables, references, expedition methodology, contributions from other researchers.

Target Audience: Ornithologists and researchers interested in North Borneo's birds.

Style: Scientific language related to bird anatomy, taxonomy, and ecology.

Historical Context: Published in 1966, reflects the scientific understanding of the time. Classification systems or terminology might be slightly outdated.

Overall: A valuable resource for researchers, but potentially technical for casual readers. Consider a field guide for a more general introduction to Borneo's birds.
