Glaucidium nanum vs. nana - Clements, S&M, and SACC all use nanum; H&M and IOC both use nana - but no source seems to have changed or "fixed" their gender - so is nanum the proper gender?
From my days of Latin, I believe Glaucidium is neuter - I guess a possible confusion may be that both nanum (singular) and nana (plural) could be neuter.
