Asian Brown Flycatcher split

Hi

Just updating my database to the IOC 3.2 list and I see that Asian Brown Flycatcher has been split, with races *williamsoni *and *umbrosa *now split as Brown-streaked Flycatcher. Anyone know which ssp is the normal one on Ashmore?

Thanks

    It is the long distance, migratory, nominate race of Asian Brown Flycatcher Muscicapa dauurica dauurica. All submissions to BARC have eliminated the forms resident in SE Asia now split. Note that there are now also records of this taxon from the Cocos (Keeling) Islands (2) and Browse Island north of the Kimberley in WA.
