[QUOTE="Richard Klim, post: 1415048, member: 773"] [b]New Taiwan endemics[/b] These are not really 'new' splits/endemics. [INDENT][The split of [I]Pomatorhinus erythrocnemis[/I] from [I]P erythrogenys[/I] has long been recognised, eg by Monroe & Sibley and Clements - it is Collar's subsequent split of [I]P gravivox[/I] etc that has left [I]P erythrocnemis[/I] as a Taiwan endemic.
