The American Ornithologists' Union recently published its Fifty-Fourth
Supplement to its Check-list of North American Birds. There are no lumps or
splits that affect the Ohio list, but there are several changes to
scientific names, and to the order that species appear in the list.

The actual supplement is not yet available online, but a summary of the
changes is available at
http://blog.aba.org/2013/08/2013-aou-check-list-changes.html.

The new official Ohio list, reflecting those changes, is now online at
http://ohiobirds.org/site/library/checklist/official.php.
