Notes

English names are those adopted British Birds in 1993 (Brit. Birds 86: 1-2), with subsequent modifications (see Brit. Birds 97: 2-5; Brit. Birds 99: 53). The list follows recommendations of the BOURC Taxonomic Sub-committee in terms of taxonomy and scientific nomenclature, and recommendations of the European Taxonomic Advisory Committee’s for decisions which fall outside the remit of the BOU. As in previous BB lists, the sequence of species within families follows that of the Concise Edition of BWP, except where alternatives have subsequently been specified by BOURC.

The code letters A, B, C and D refer to the categories used by the BOU to define status in Great Britain:

Category A. Species that have been recorded in an apparently natural state at least once since 1st January 1950.

Category B. Species that were recorded in an apparently natural state at least once between 1st January 1800 and 31st December 1949, but have not been recorded subsequently.

Category C.

Species that, although introduced, now derive from the resulting self-sustaining populations.

C1 Naturalised introduced species – species that have occurred only as a result of introduction, e.g. Egyptian Goose Alopochen aegyptiaca.

C2 Naturalised established species – species with established populations resulting from introduction by Man, but which also occur in an apparently natural state, e.g. Greylag Goose Anser anser.

C3 Naturalised re-established species – species with populations successfully re-established by Man in areas of former occurrence, e.g. Red Kite Milvus milvus.

C4 Naturalised feral species – domesticated species with populations established in the wild, e.g. Rock Dove/Feral Pigeon Columba livia.

C5 Vagrant naturalised species – species from established naturalised populations abroad, e.g. possibly some Ruddy Shelducks Tadorna ferruginea occurring in Britain. There are currently no species in category C5.

C6 Former naturalised species – species formerly placed in C1 whose naturalized population is either no longer self-sustaining or are considered extinct, e.g. Lady Amherst’s Pheasant Chrysolophus amherstiae.

Category D. Species that would otherwise appear in Category A except that there is reasonable doubt that they have ever occurred in a natural state. Species placed in Category D only form no part of the British List, and are not included in the species totals. Those species included only in Category D on other Western Palearctic national lists are excluded from this list.

Others. The letter I indicates a Category A species recorded in Ireland but not in Britain. The letter X denotes a globally extinct species. An asterisk after the category letter denotes those species for which records are considered by BBRC.

Since the 1993 list was published, several species have been removed from this list. In most instances, this is because there is doubt as to whether they have occurred naturally within the Western Palearctic. In just one case, a formerly recognised species has been merged to form a distinctive race of a wider ranging species, i.e. Tenerife Goldcrest Regulus teneriffae now becomes a race of Goldcrest Regulus regulus.
