This bibliography has been extracted from my larger database,
“A bibliographic index to the birds of South Asia.” It comprises
papers, popular articles, books, chapters, published and un-
published reports, trip reports,
etc
. It covers a period of one
hundred and seventy years, from 1838–2008. A bibliography
of this nature cannot pretend to be complete and this is no
exception. There are always publications beyond the reach of
the bibliographer. A case in point being the various birding trip
reports prepared by bird tour operators. However a majority of the
published ornithological work on Bhutan’s ornithology is listed
here. Accuracy in transcribing is a basic tenet of bibliography and
though great care has been taken to ensure it, mistakes may have
crept in and pertinent published material inadvertently left out.
This is the more likely in that I have not seen all the entries listed
below in the original, but have freely taken them secondhand
from the ‘References’ or ‘Further reading’ sections of papers and
books. I would be grateful if readers sent me citations of material
that is missing here
