Any reason not to commit this?

This should be done.

By the way, this is getting really weird now, with both M. fusca deglandi and M. deglandi existing, as well as most North American and Asian records still being M. fusca.

This taxon change is now (or soon will be) obsolete, as NACC have now split into three not two species, and Clements will presumably follow

Clement's is splitting deglandi and stejnegeri

Probably makes sense to do two splits sequentially, so have drafted a new taxon split for deglandi
