I am quite comfortable with the "hyphening
adventure" but if they use ?Glossy Black-Cockatoo? it is quite dumb
to not have it under ?Black-Cockatoo? in the index and put it under
?Cockatoo, Glossy Black?. Is there the same silliness for BFCS under
"Shrike, Black-faced Cuckoo". Indeed "Black-faced Cuckoo-shrike" becomes hard to
understand without the hyphens.
I wonder how well known is the problem of the name
?King-Parrot?. I wonder have you made efforts to highlight this. You have
explained it to me and I did not know from elsewhere that it should be King's
Parrot.
I also wonder have they corrected the dopey oft
repeated miss-spelling of the species name of the Collared Sparrowhawk, (with
the extra wrong h in it -cirrhocephalus should be
cirrocephalus).
I like the name Maned Duck.
