I have a doubt about this sentence from Andersen & al (2014, phylogeny of Monarchidae) :
According to them, the type species is one of the species mentioned above.
But this source says that Muscicapa nigra Sparrman, 1786 (= Pomarea nigra) is the type species (which is embedded in the Metabolus clade )
So, who's wrong, who's right ?
Our results strongly supported monophyly of a clade including all Marquesas species, henceforth recognized as true Pomarea (P. mendozae, P. mira, P. nukuhivae, P. iphis, P. fluxa, and P. whitneyi)
According to them, the type species is one of the species mentioned above.
