Thirty-Third Supplement to the American Ornithologists' Union Check-List of North American Birds

Lowery GH and American Ornithologists' Union. 1976. Thirty-Third Supplement to the American Ornithologists' Union Check-List of North American Birds. The Auk. 93(4):875-879

This supplement covers changes in names of bird taxa approved by the Committee on Classification and Nomenclature since the publication of the Thirty-second Supplement (1973 Auk 90) and the Corrections and additions to that supplement. Almost all the changes in scientific names result from taxonomic decisions generally adopted or proposed previously in the major literature; one is a change in spelling based on the international code of Zoological Nomenclature; another conforms the English group name with that presently favored by water-fowl students.
