Abstract

The field notes document work of Russell Greenberg in Xalapa, Mexico, during 1997. Entries are organized in two structures. The first appears to be organized possibly by bird's identifier (e.g. 550064), and lists measurements for length, depth, width, cord, op, tail, and tarsus. Numbers are non-sequential. Other entries appear to be organized by location number, and list type and sex of bird, as well as descriptions of behavior. Much of the content is written in abbreviations.
