Info: The Atlas of Southern African Birds is an outstanding achievement and is the climax to the largest biodiversity project ever conducted in Africa - a splendid production which will be a standard work for many years to come.
Due to the wide diversity of habitats in Southern africa this Atlas shows that 9% of all bird species are regularly found on only 1.67% of the world's land surface.
Line drawings by various artists, Habitat, Movements, Breeding, Interspecific Relationships, and Distribution maps and Seasonality diagrams.
The Southern African Bird Atlas Project (SABAP) was conducted between 1987 and 1991. Because a new bird atlas was started in southern Africa in 2007, the earlier project is now referred to as SABAP1. The new atlas project is known as the Second Southern African Bird Atlas Project, and is abbreviated to SABAP2. The project is ongoing, and is now managed by the FitzPatrick Institute of African Ornithology at the University of Cape Town. Most of the data capture happens through the application BirdLasser. The project is currently funded by BirdLife South Africa and the South African National Biodiversity Institute.
