Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life Histories of North American Petrels and Pelicans and Their Allies: Order Tubinares and Order Steganopodes This Bulletin contains a continuation of the work on the life histories of North American birds, begun in Bulletin 107 and continued in Bulletin 113. The same general plan has been followed and the same sources of information have been utilized. Nearly all of those who contributed material for, or helped in preparing, the former volumes have rendered similar service in this case. In addition to those whose contributions have been previously acknowledged, my thanks are due to the following contributors: Photographs have been contributed, or their use authorized, by A. W. Anthony, D. A. Bannerman, H. H. Bailey, Edwin Beaupre, Biological Survey, W. K. Fisher, Joseph Grinnell. A. O. Gross, J. H. Gurney, Maud D. Haviland, Lynds Jones, F. H. Kennard, R. C. Murphy, E. W. Nelson, and P. B. Philipp. Notes and data have been contributed by D. E. Brown, T. D. Burleigh, A. J. Campbell, H. F. Lewis, J. T. Nichols, C. W. Richmond, and J. R. Whitaker. The distributional part of this Bulletin has been done by the author. Messrs. Robert Cushman Murphy and John Treadwell Nichols have examined and revised the distribution of the Tubinares and Mr. James H. Fleming has done the same for the Steganopodes. In the two previous Bulletins the author adopted, without any changes, the nomenclature of the 1910 edition of the check list of the American Ornithologists´ Union. But now that a new check list is in preparation, it seems best to adopt the names that will probably appear in the new check list, so far as they are now understood by author.
