Hodgson's Hawk Cuckoo

[Phil Gregory <>]

Regarding the Hodgson's Hawk Cuckoo, here is what the Oriental Bird
Club website has to say about it:

Hodgson’s Hawk-Cuckoo Cuculus (Hierococcyx) fugax is split into four  
species: Hodgson’s Hawk-Cuckoo Cuculus nisicolor, Northern Hawk-Cuckoo 
Cuculus hyperythrus, Philippine Hawk-CuckooCuculus pectoralis and
Malaysian Hawk-Cuckoo Cuculus fugax. King, Ben F. 2002. The
Hierococcyx fugax, Hodgson’s Hawk Cuckoo, complex. Bull. B. O. C. 122  
(1): 74-80.
Be interesting to see which taxon fits here, and even more interesting  
to see what the Checklist people do with it, probably taking the usual  
conservative taxonomic line I imagine.
