Letter from Philip A. DuMont to Martin L. Grant regarding suggestions to the "Check-list of Iowa Birds", December 7, 1962. The letter details several suggestions DuMont has for Grant's proposed check list of birds, including the use of the full name for each species, omitting the former names of species, eliminating names and initials after the scientific name, and adding a habitat symbol to the status of the bird.

A checklist of Iowa bird species that were reliably reported for the past fifty years as well as earlier ones for which specimens were available complied by Martin L. Grant and Pauline Sauer. The 361 bird species are numbered and listed by their official common name under the appropriate order and family name. The list also includes the scientific name as well as the abundance, resident status, and usual geographical location within the state of Iowa for each bird species.

A list of different factors to use in determining if a bird species should be added to the state bird list, April 21, 1952. The list suggests the following three things: dividing the state into zones based on observation records, reporting birds based on migrant or permanent resident status, and reporting birds on the basis of relative abundance.

A report compiled by the members of the Committee of Bird Distribution in response to growing opinions that the current state bird list for Iowa may be misleading due to the fact that gives the status of each species on a state-wide basis. The committee has divided the state into 9 sections for a more accurate representation of when and where certain species of birds are observed. Then, based on information collected from IOU members from the past 15 years, the species were classified by when they were reported in the state, including summer resident or visitor, winter resident or visitor, spring or fall migrant, permanent resident, casual, or accidental. Also attached is the resulting checklist of each bird found in Iowa listed by species, state location, and classification as well as a list of several species that have been seen with enough frequency to warrant inclusion to the Iowa check-list.
