    Why did the editors of the journal accept this manuscript if the grammatical gender of the name Strigops has been definitively determined?

    https://www.biotaxa.org/bzn/article/view/84957 Strigops habroptilus Gray, 1845 is the valid scientific name of the kākāpō (Aves, Strigopidae) Abstract The kākāpō was named Strigops habroptilus by G.R. Gray in 1845. However, in recent decades authorities have begun to recommend habroptila as...

    Apart from differences in plumage which is very variable even within a genus, are there solid arguments for maintaining the genera Psitteuteles, Pseudeos, Chalcopsitta, Eos, Glossoptilus, Saudareos and Glossopsitta? The same for the Charmosyna/Coriphilus clade, many species share the same...

    Yet I don't have this problem when I consult other works in BHL. It's a tool that I use very often.

    Ok. Strangely, when I type massena or trichoglossus in the journal's internal search engine, it doesn't find anything

    Thankyou, the mistake comes from Avibase. This name appears in a list but is there a figure or description that refers to it?

    In this page of the Revue et Magasin de Zoologie sér.2:t.6 (1854) - Revue et magasin de zoologie pure et appliquée - Biodiversity Heritage Library , Trichoglossus massena is supposed to be described, but I can't find it anywhere in this article. Couldn't there be a source error?

    Even work that doesn't treat on taxonomy? Don't forget that this is a CINFO bis. Besides, my list contains two nomina nuda (Campina and Lanyonia) and I don't want tu remove them.

    I publish each new version on my Facebook group (Mon Coin Ornitho) and it has been downloaded by some members. Jean-Sébastien Guénette (Québec Oiseaux) has a version published this year (after the death of Normand David)

    I also use Nyctherodius and Myiosympotes, will this have an influence on the taxonomy?

    I wanted to print copies to have a form of exclusivity and I preferred to print new copies when there were major changes. My work was completely proofread by Normand David and I believe that Michel Gosselin has just discovered it.

    There are some print version, I think there are 4 in BNF and 2 copies are in my city's media library (médiathèque Michel Crépeau), but there are more (I have one of them and a friend too). All these versions contain errors of all kinds (mispelling, authority errors, etc.). Now I will only make...

    But I won't do it because the main subject is common names even if there are Latin scientific names (obligatory because I link a French binomial to a Latin binomial so I have no choice to use taxonomy) and that this can influence the uses. Common names are not regulated by the Code, I don't...

    If Sangster and Gregory were more attentive, they would have seen that I had used Androglossinae instead of Amazoninae but I imagine that would not have influenced their final decision. I referred to Bock (1994) and Boyd for taxa above genus but I wonder if the former would not have forgotten...

    But I use available names, except those in brackets. Does the fact that the authors of higher-ranking taxa (family and order) are not cited change anything?

    Now its the 6.2, soon 6.3 when new genera in progress will be published. Some copies are deposited at the BNF (pour le dépôt légal) My book is only on French names, nothing else, not taxonomy or nomenclatural act.

    Uuuuuh ? 🧐 Are you talking about my book? If so, this is not a book on taxonomy.

    Or Bolborhynchinae. To tell the truth, I recognise these clades as subfamilies
