内容説明

This study covers two widely-known groups of Old-World tropical birds. Pittas are a gound-dwelling insectivorous species. Broadbills form a more diverse group - some being highly specialized insectivores, others being fructivores. The range of the 49 species covers South and East Asia, Wallacea, New Guinea, Northern Australia and Africa.
