Yes, Koel anyway, are they split?

IOC and HBW have E. orientalis split from E.scolopaceus but using different common names Pacific Koel (IOC) and Eastern Koel (HBW)...
I think this is the resident rufiventer race of Pacific Koel as opposed to the migrant race subcyanocephalus which is in New Guinea for the Australian winter.

Thanks for that.
