IOC 14.1

Postby ledzep » Tue Jan 23, 2024 9:11 pm

Latest IOC 14.1 has split Intermediate Egret into Medium Egret (Ardea Intermedia) and Plumed Egret (Ardea plumifera) which is the Australian species. Looks like I have a new species on my lifelist. The Shore Dotterel and Hooded Dotterel and now Shore Plover and Hooded Plover (the names we normally use).

The latter 2 are also now moved into Charadrius, along with Black-Fronted Dotterel
