Exclamation Scientific Name of the Brown Teal

The entry in opus for the Brown Teal has it as Anas aucklandica. However, according to both the IOC English Names V2.0 and Clements V6.3.2 the mainland New Zealand bird is Anas chlorotis.

Anas aucklandica is the flightless species found on the islets of the Auckland Islands group.

I think this needs to be corrected.
