This is a list of the bird species recorded in Iceland. The avifauna of Iceland included a total of 425 confirmed species as of November 2024 according to the Icelandic Birding Pages (IBP) with supplemental additions from Avibase.[1] The entire populations of two species have resulted from introductions by humans, and a few other species have individuals of both natural and human-assisted origin. One species on the list is extinct.
This list's taxonomic treatment (designation and sequence of orders, families and species) and nomenclature (English and scientific names) are those of The Clements Checklist of Birds of the World, 2022 edition.[2]
The following tags have been used to highlight some categories of occurrence.
- (A) Accidental - a species that rarely or accidentally occurs in Iceland
- (I) Introduced - a species introduced to Iceland as a consequence, direct or indirect, of human actions, and has become established
