AIMS AND SCOPE
The Society for the Conservation and Study of Caribbean Birds (SCSCB) is a non-profit organization whose goals are to promote the conservation and scientific study of Caribbean birds and their habitats, to provide a link among island ornithologists and those elsewhere, to provide a written forum for researchers in the region, and to provide data or technical aid to conservation groups in the Caribbean.

The SCSCB publishes The Journal of Caribbean Ornithology, a refereed journal publishing articles, notes, commentaries, book reviews, and announcements on all aspects of avian biology within the Caribbean region. Contributions are welcome in either English, Spanish, or French. Since the journal’s humble inception as El Pitirre, the society's newsletter, in 1988, James W. Wiley single-handedly edited 17 volumes of the journal, which gradually increased in quantity and quality over the years as it transformed into a reputable scientific journal. In 2003 (volume 16) the journal's name changed to The Journal of Caribbean Ornithology to better reflect the journal's content .
