Heads up: Some or all of the identifications affected by
this split may have been replaced with identifications of Pomatorhinus. This
happens when we can't automatically assign an identification to one of the
output taxa.
Review identifications of Pomatorhinus montanus 15273
Chestnut-backed Scimitar-Babbler is split into two species based on differences in plumage, vocalizations. and habitat/elevation (Eaton et al. 2016). Therefore the polytypic group Chestnut-backed Scimitar-Babbler (Sunda) Pomatorhinus montanus bornensis/occidentalis, with subspecies bornensis and occidentalis, becomes Sunda Scimitar-Babbler Pomatorhinus bornensis; and the polytypic group Chestnut-backed Scimitar-Babbler (Javan) Pomatorhinus montanus montanus/ottolanderi, with subspecies montanus and ottolanderi, becomes Javan Scimitar-Babbler Pomatorhinus montanus.
Unintended disagreements occur when a parent (B) is
thinned by swapping a child (E) to another part of the
taxonomic tree, resulting in existing IDs of the parent being interpreted
as disagreements with existing IDs of the swapped child.
Identification
ID 2 of taxon E will be an unintended disagreement with ID 1 of taxon B after the taxon swap
If thinning a parent results in more than 10 unintended disagreements, you
should split the parent after swapping the child to replace existing IDs
of the parent (B) with IDs that don't disagree.
