Dave,
I have just done a web dredge using DEVONagent and come up with a
large number of hits on S. m. v-nigrum Unfortunately, none with an
explanation of the ssp. name. Perhaps if you contacted someone from
the Sea Duck Joint Venture http://www.seaduckjv.org/contacts.pdf
they may be able to shed some light on the matter.
Cheers,
Carl Clifford

Hi
I am working on a spreadsheet that correlates the latest IOC 3e list
(with
subspecies) to the relevant pages in the HBW volumes - should have it
finished in a week or so if anyone wants a copy.
Anyway - I have found that a subspecies of Common Eider is listed as
*Somateria
mollissima v-nigrum* which is confusing me as I thought all components
were
"simple" words - my software certainly did not expect a hyphen in the
middle of a component. It is also listed (as *v-nigra*) on the Avibase
system. Anyone have an explanation for this?
Thanks
Dave
