David,

If it is in the IOC, it has been accepted as a species. If you want an up to date Australian list, just extract the Australian species from the IOC checklist whenever an updated edition is released and paste it into a new spreadsheet.

Couldn't be simpler and does away with the need for a committee.

Cheers,

Carl Clifford

Hi birdos,

Like Phil I have adopted the IOC list as the best way to inform my own check-list. I figure overseas birdos get to use it so why can't I.

A cursory glance of the list has some significant splits such as Red- collared Lorikeet from the Rainbow, Hornbill Friarbird from Helmeted, Swan River Honeyeater from White-naped, Western Grasswren from Thick- billed and Paperbark Flycatcher from Restless. Doubtless I missed some too. I assume IOC uses up to date data from the best of scientific input.

Cheers
