Abstract

The US Geological Survey (USGS) Pacific Island Ecosystems Research Center (PIERC) - Hawaii Forest Bird Survey Database - Birds dataset includes bird species occurrence data from the Hawaii Forest Bird Survey, conducted by the USFWS Research Program (now USGS), on the islands of Hawaii, Maui, Molokai, Lanai, and Kauai between 1976 and 1981. The survey and field collection methodology are documented in: Scott, J. M., J. D. Jacobi, and F. L. Ramsey. 1981. Avian surveys of large geographic areas: A systematic approach. The Wildlife Society Bulletin 9(3): 190-200.
