BIRDS OF YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK 



151 



INDEX 



(Including summary of occurrence and distribution) 

 The index provides a summary of status and life-zone distribution of the birds of Yosemite. The 

 abbreviations for status are explained on page 78, while the abbreviations for life-zones are the 

 initials of the zonal names as explained on pages 76 and 77. Status is given first. Life-zone range 

 is of resident birds or those spending the summer or winter in the region. Zonal range is not 

 always stated for casual visitants or transients because it often has little meaning with reference to 

 occurrence in Yosemite. 



A space is provided in front of each name to permit checking each species as it is identified, 

 in this manner the reader may keep a "life list" for the Yosemite region and may add to it on 

 subsequent visits. Place a check mark in front of a name only if certain of your identification. 

 Names not provided with a check space are synonyms. Numbers indicate pages in this booklet.
