All new copies of the first printings, direct from the original publisher. Cambridge: Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard, 1934-1987. Volume I (1) (Second edition) through Volume XVI (16) (Comprehensive Index). A complete annotated checklist with English and scientific names. A monumental compendium. The paramount function of the Peters' check-list was to inventory and outline the distribution of the world's avifauna, rather than to provide a classification of the Class Aves, its taxonomy, inevitably, has been considered authoritative.
