Heads up: Some or all of the identifications affected by
this split may have been replaced with identifications of Lophura. This
happens when we can't automatically assign an identification to one of the
output taxa.
Review identifications of Lophura ignita 1118
Crested Fireback is split into two species, based on substantial differences in plumage (del Hoyo and Collar 2014, Eaton et al. 2016). Note that although apparent hybrids have been reported (Delacour 1949, van Marle and Voous 1988), apparently pure birds occur very near this region (Eaton et al. 2016); it also is possible that these reports of birds with intermediate characters were based on trade skins of captive hybrids, rather than a wild population (F. Rheindt). As a result the monotypic group Crested Fireback (Malayan) Lophura ignita rufa becomes Malayan Crested Fireback Lophura rufa; and the monotypic group Crested Fireback (Bornean) Lophura ignita ignita becomes Bornean Crested Fireback Lophura ignita.
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.
