Do they propose vernacular names for these mooted splits?
So, well, Dicrurus (Edolius) occidentalis sp. nov.

If anyone has this paper, I'm ready to receive it.
Thanks for this. My birds in Kenya could cause me a headache but I'm covered on the other split!
Where did you go in Kenya? I think anything from southern Turkana north should be safely Glossy-backed while Meru and south should be Fork-tailed.
