More nomenclatural 'chaos' to vex Panov...
Doesn't support the split of Cettia (diphone) canturians Manchurian Bush Warbler (including ssp borealis), as recognised by, eg, Monroe & Sibley 1993, IOC, BLI, Kennerley & Pearson 2010, Brazil 2009.
[Curiously, Cornell (Clements) recognises C canturians (monotypic) as 'Manchurian' Bush-Warbler, but excludes the Manchurian ssp (borealis)!]
