Golden-bellied Starfrontlet is split into three species, based on plumage differences, and because genetic evidence indicates that a polytypic Golden-bellied Starfrontlet is paraphyletic with respect to Blue-throated Starfrontlet Coeligena helianthea (Palacios et al. 2019). Therefore the monotypic group Golden-bellied Starfrontlet (Perija) Coeligena bonapartei consita is recognized as Perija Starfrontlet Coeligena consita; the monotypic group Golden-bellied Starfrontlet (Golden-bellied) Coeligena bonapartei bonapartei is recognized as Golden-bellied Starfrontlet Coeligena bonapartei; and the monotypic group Golden-bellied Starfrontlet (Golden-tailed) Coeligena bonapartei eos is recognized as Merida Starfrontlet Coeligena eos.
Unintended disagreements occur when a parent (B) is
thinned by swapping a child (E) to another part of the
taxonomic tree, resulting in existing IDs of the parent being interpreted
as disagreements with existing IDs of the swapped child.
Identification
ID 2 of taxon E will be an unintended disagreement with ID 1 of taxon B after the taxon swap
If thinning a parent results in more than 10 unintended disagreements, you
should split the parent after swapping the child to replace existing IDs
of the parent (B) with IDs that don't disagree.
