Abstract

The index and summaries relate to M. Moynihan's observations of Coraciiformes (kingfishers), 1977-1987. Pages are numbered. Summaries are headed with date, location, and type, and relate information through subheadings like habitat, behaviors (i.e.feeding, interspecific relations), appearance, and vocalizations. Indexes reference behaviors and page numbers with headings for Yellowbills, Redbills, Blackbills, and Dwarf Redbills. Locations include Mbour and Parc National de Basse-Casamance, Senegal; Orissa, India; Liberia; Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire; and Gabon.
