So would Tassy Pinks be identifiable as such if collected in Victoria? Or is this just an average difference with broad overlap? Cheers, Chris.

HANZAB shows that Tasmanian birds are bigger in all measurements so rather than having proportionately longer wings they are just bigger all around, no advantage in that for migration. Similarly there is not enough data in HANZAB to compare average weights for the two ssp, but if the birds in Tas are physically bigger in all measurements then they would have to be heavier.
