By Birding-Aus, on May 8th, 2018 Some interesting discussion, but Graeme and others I think it is rather premature to be drawing the boundary delimiting Spotted Scrubwren from White-browed. In particular, note that Kangaroo Island’s ashbyi aligned with eastern birds on mitochondrial DNA in the recent Norman et al paper, though the authors did recommend leaving ashbyi in maculatus (on morphological . . . → Read More: Scrubwrens
