Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Developments in several fields of study (including bio-acoustics and the analysis of DNA) together with reappraisals of the nature of species have impacted significantly on avian taxonomy. The BOU’s Taxonomic Subcommittee has developed guidelines for the applicationof species limits to sympatric, parapatric, allopatric and hybridizing taxa. These are published here to assist researchers understand the rationale behind the committee’s taxonomic recommendations relating to the British List.

Species limits in Acrocephalus and Hippolais warblers from the Western Palearctic
- 2004
-
In: British Birds. - 0007-0335. ; 97:6, s. 276-299
-
Journal article (pop. science, debate, etc.)abstract
- The taxonomic affiliations within the genera [Acrocephalus] and [Hippolais] have long been a matter for debate. Recent molecular and behavioural studies have provided a wealth of new data which can be used to analyse the evolutionary relationships of the Palearctic taxa in these genera. In this paper, we make a series of recommendations for changes in species limits, highlight some problem areas and discuss situations where more research is needed.
