    Did it? That's an odd one, must be ship assisted and then island hopping?

    Given recent events, 'Brewster's' is highly unlikely to stick so I woder what the name of the new species will be?

    What you describe is three races, not just the one, mentioned above which makes more sense but the info there is obviously incomplete. venator, Puerta Rico fringiloides, Cuba striatus, Hispaniola.

    Why not, they have a Caribbean coastline? As I said, range is given as only Hispaniola but they refer to it as Caribbean so they must wander or they'd call it 'Hispaniolan'?

    2024-B-13: Revise the taxonomy of the Sharp-shinned Hawk complex: Split mainland Accipiter velox from Caribbean A. striatus 'Caribbean', do they move because Scythebill gives Hispaniola (Haiti and the Dominican Rep) as the range?

    Way more involved than just Southern and Northern! Almost every Caribbean Island has it's own species now, one up for me with Grenada but wondering why tobagensis didn't get split? 2024-C-3a: Recognize multiple species within the House Wren Troglodytes aedon complex: Recognize T. musculus as a...

    So true, and this could have ramifications for the British list, the well twitched birds last year will now be 'sp', upsetting a lot of people!

    What's the Southerly limit of Northern? I've never been North of Florida so I guess all I've seen is Southern.
