Heads up: Some or all of the identifications affected by this split may have been replaced with identifications of Copsychus. This happens when we can't automatically assign an identification to one of the output taxa. Review identifications of Copsychus malabaricus 204490

Taxonomic Split 120931 (Committed on 2023-01-25)

The polytypic group White-rumped Shama (White-crowned) Copsychus malabaricus stricklandii/barbouri is recognized as a separate species, White-crowned Shama Copsychus stricklandii, based on its distinct plumage and the demonstration of almost no nuclear admixture and introgression between the two forms despite a narrow hybrid zone (Lim et al. 2017).
