Hi Paul,
Can't off the top of my head verify that is a complete list, but I'm pretty
sure the two quail-thrush splits have been accepted in the latest IOC revision
When I last checked Eastern Yellow Wagtail and Green-headed Yellow Wagtail were
lumped by IOC - I don't know if that's still the case
Cheers,John
