Lista de aves

Madagascar es una nación insular situada frente a la costa sudeste de África. Debido a su larga separación de los continentes vecinos -a través del movimiento tectónico, se separó de África hace unos 160 millones de años, y de la India hace unos 90 millones de años-, contiene muchas especies endémicas de la isla[1] De las 287 especies de aves registradas en Madagascar, 105 no se encuentran en ningún otro lugar de la tierra, y un puñado de otras sólo se comparten con las islas comoranas vecinas;[2] una de ellas ha sido declarada extinta[3].

El tratamiento taxonómico de esta lista (designación y secuencia de órdenes, familias y especies) sigue las convenciones de The Clements Checklist of Birds of the World, 6ª edición[4].

Los comentarios sobre el estado de las especies proceden de Aves de Madagascar de Morris y Hawkins: Una Guía Fotográfica a menos que se indique lo contrario. Las especies introducidas y accidentales se incluyen en los recuentos totales. Los códigos de la Lista Roja de la UICN son los proporcionados por la Unión Internacional para la Conservación de la Naturaleza y los Recursos Naturales; provienen del sitio web de la Lista Roja de la UICN[5].

El endémico color rojo de Madagascar es común y está muy extendido, incluso en la capital del país, Antananarivo[22].
