Eopsaltria australis chrysorrhos -- is this the correct form or should it be Eopsaltria australis chrysorrhoa?

Thanks Niels.

I can only see chrysorrhoa being used in the Clements 3rd edition.

A bit more searching reveals that Eopsaltria chrysorrhoa was the scientific name used by Clements for Northern Yellow Robin, that one seems to have been absorbed into Eastern?

I'll have to watch.... getting myself confused by them LOL.

I'll leave it to you to explain what the Taxonomy lot say, as it's usually too complicated for me!!;)

Everybody has settled on chrysorrhos now. That's almost certainly because David & Gosselin (2002), the massive cleanup of gender agreement issues, said

202. Eopsaltria chrysorrhos Gould, 1869, must be spelt Eopsaltria australis chrysorrhos, and should not be changed to E. a. chrysorrhoa.
